What Students Say

Likes

I liked how easily the course fits into my schedule.
There are abundant opportunities present in the campus.

Dislikes

The marking system is a bit too harsh which makes it tough to score good marks.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

The curriculum is really relevant to the course. The reason behind choosing the course was that I could get some knowledge in the domain of Business administration, so as to set up my own enterprise in the future. The faculty has been amazing, imparting whatever they know while teaching us. The term exams have been running on schedule and it's easy to pass them if you have been paying heed to the lectures.

Class Size: 85Course Fees: INR 320000 per year

Placement Experience

The students become eligible for the placements fifth semester onwards (by its completion). Reputed companies like Accenture, Amazon, Morgan Stanley, KPMG, PWC, etc., visit the campus and offer moderately sufficient packages. The highest package offered in the last couple of years was 10 LPA, while the least was 3 LPA. About 97.6% of students get placed every year.

Fees and Financial Aid

There's a 10% hike in the annual college fee. This year onwards, the fees have been revised to 365000. No, I did not avail of any sort of scholarship or had any financial assistance from any source whatsoever.

Campus Life

Campus life is quite good. The college has numerous cells, clubs, groups, boards, etc., that give a great amount of exposure to individuals seeking it. Talking about the library, the college comprises both physical as well as E-library, both of which are updated with the latest collection of books, journals, gazettes, etc. The availability of sports is also good, consisting of basketball courts, football and cricket ground, and numerous indoor games.

Admission

The admission gets processed through SET (Symbiosis Entrance Test), followed by a round of GD/PI. This year onwards, the college has started 2 slots for the admission process, starting in April and the other one in June.

Interview Experience

The questions asked in the GD/PI rounds were hypothetical. It basically tested my aptitude and application of skills in made-up scenarios. The SET exam consisted of Written Ability Test, for which the question was quite general, and needed some elaborate thinking.

Symbiosis: a zig zag experience

I chose Symbiosis because it offered International Business which is of my keen interest. When I contacted other colleges and enquired about this course, they said they don't have this course or some said "we're not sure". I mean how can they be not sure of their own curriculum? And I applied only to SYMBIOSIS. Now I'm in my final year and dual specializing in International Business and Marketing. For the admission process, firstly fill the application form and then they'll also conduct a mock test when main entrance exam is around a month away or smtg. And then Symbiosis Entrance EXAM (SET EXAM) happens. After qualifying that,the student is shortlisted to WAT (written assessment test). It's like an essay writing test, you will be given a topic and 20mins of time. Lastly it's the PI (personal interview) and then merit list or not depends on student performance....Read More
