Financial Aid, Scholarships and Prizes
An investment in education is an investment in personal growth and hence its return is immeasurable. But we do realize that since this investment is not only in terms of time and energy but also money, it might be difficult for many students to pursue the program without some external aid.
Admission to the Institute does not depend on your financial need. This means that, your application will be processed and your candidature evaluated irrespective of whether you need financial assistance or not. This means that if you are good enough to get admitted to the program, you do not need to worry about financing your way. There are many ways out.

Scholarships
The Institute offers limited financial assistance to deserving students enrolled in the PGDM/PGDCM. Assistance is also provided by a number of organizations. Meritorious students in the second year may also be awarded teaching assistantship.
