PU BBA FAQs
Ques. Is CUET mandatory for BBA admission at Poornima University, or can I apply directly?
Ans. CUET UG is not mandatory for BBA admission at Poornima University. The university primarily offers direct merit-based admissions where your Class 12 aggregate percentage is the deciding factor. You can apply directly through the university's online portal at poornima.edu.in by paying a registration fee of Rs. 1,500. However, if you have a CUET UG score, you may submit it for consideration. This makes the admission process relatively straightforward for students who have not appeared for CUET.
Ques. How does the scholarship system work at Poornima University for BBA, and will I get the same scholarship in Year 2 and Year 3?
Ans. The SES Scholarship in Year 1 is determined by your Class 12 percentage. For Year 2 and Year 3, the scholarship continuation depends on your CGPA in the previous academic year (theory papers only). If you have any backlog (failed paper) in any semester, the scholarship is permanently discontinued and cannot be reinstated. Also, the scholarship category (percentage of discount) cannot be upgraded in subsequent years even if your performance improves. It is important to note that scholarships apply only to the tuition fee component (Rs. 63,750 per year for General BBA) and not to development or administrative fees.
Ques. What is the actual annual fee I will pay after scholarship, and are there any hidden charges?
Ans. The annual program fee for BBA General is Rs. 1,00,000 (tuition: Rs. 63,750 + development: Rs. 21,250 + administrative: Rs. 15,000). If you score above 85% in Class 12 and get Category 1 SES Scholarship (40% on tuition), your tuition fee reduces by Rs. 25,500, making the effective annual fee approximately Rs. 74,500. One-time charges include a non-refundable registration fee of Rs. 1,500 (Year 1) and a refundable caution deposit of Rs. 5,000 (Year 1). In the final year, an Alumni and Convocation fee of Rs. 2,500 is charged. There are no other hidden charges reported by students, though hostel and meal costs are separate.
Ques. How are placements for BBA students at Poornima University? What kind of companies visit and what is the average package?
Ans. Placements for BBA students at Poornima University are primarily regional and entry-level in nature. Companies from sectors like banking, sales, marketing, retail, and operations visit the campus. Based on student reviews, the average package for BBA graduates ranges between Rs. 2.5 to 4 LPA, with some students reporting packages up to Rs. 5-6 LPA in specific roles. Recruiters include companies like Tata, Infosys, Adani, Wipro, and various regional firms. Internship opportunities are available from the second year, with stipends ranging from Rs. 7,000 to 15,000 per month. Students who proactively build skills through certifications and internships tend to secure better placements. Placement is not guaranteed and depends significantly on individual effort and specialization chosen.
Ques. Is the hostel mandatory for BBA students, and what is the food quality like based on student feedback?
Ans. Hostel accommodation at Poornima University is optional and not mandatory for BBA students. The hostel fees range from Rs. 1,05,000 per year (fan room, double/triple occupancy) to Rs. 1,40,000 per year (AC studio room with attached washroom). Meals are included in the hostel fee for Fire Campus hostels, while for the main campus hostels, a vegetarian meal plan is standard and a non-vegetarian add-on costs Rs. 20,000 extra per year. Based on student reviews on Quora and Collegedunia, food quality has been a mixed experience, with some students reporting a decline in quality over time. Students who prefer more flexibility often opt for PGs or flats near the campus instead.
Ques. Can I switch my BBA specialization after taking admission, and what specializations are most popular?
Ans. Switching specializations after admission is generally not straightforward and depends on seat availability and university policy at the time of admission. It is advisable to finalize your specialization before applying. The most popular BBA specializations at Poornima University, based on student interest and placement outcomes, are Digital Marketing and Business Analytics. These two specializations have higher annual fees (Rs. 1,20,000 per year) compared to the General BBA (Rs. 1,00,000 per year) but offer better industry alignment in the current job market. Banking and Finance is another sought-after specialization for students interested in the BFSI sector.
