Can I get admission for MBA without competitive exams like CAT, MAT?
Asked about DSU - Dayananda Sagar University - Master of Business Administration (MBA)

No, for getting admission in MBA, you have to qualify any one of the entrance exam. Without entrance exam, you can not get admission in a reputed college. So, my advice to you is that you should qualify any entrance exam so that you can easily get admission.

1. You can gain some experience by getting a job and apply for MBA after 1-2 years. Few colleges have profile based calling who call experienced candidates directly.
2. By management quota or by giving donations, you can get it directly. -
