    Yes, GIBS Business School offers special scholarships and awards for meritorious students.

     Scholarships are based on entrance exam scores, academic performance, and personal background—such as being from a defence family or having a certified disability.

    Awards like the J.P. Goyal Memorial Award, Shakuntala Devi Award, and Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Award recognize top performers in academics, research, and overall excellence.

    These initiatives encourage students to strive for success and reward outstanding achievements.

Yes, candidates can apply to GIBS Business School, Bangalore, using only MAT scores for admission to the PGDM or MBA course. GIBS accepts MAT as one of the approved national-level entrance examinations for the purpose of shortlisting students. Students who have a valid MAT score, as per the eligibility criteria of the institute, can apply directly without requiring any further entrance tests.

GIBS Business School in Bangalore has a competitive but fair admission process. They look at your entrance exam scores (like CAT, MAT, CMAT, GMAT, or ATMA), your graduation marks, and also your performance in a Group Discussion and Personal Interview. While the exact acceptance rate isn't publicly available, many students with good scores and overall potential get admission.
