Can you tell me which is a better college to pursue MBA between IPE and GITAM considering the fees and placements?

The mode of application for GITAM School of Core Engineering is online. It is compulsory for students to give the entrance test. The school does not give merit-based admission. Students can apply at the official GITAM website for admissions. 

GITAM School of Technology Hyderabad  is recognised by the UGC and AICTE  and gives good education to the students. Below given are the reasons to choose GITAM Hyderabad:

• Placement Opportunities: The college gives placement opportunities in companies like Tiger Analytics, Amadeus IT Group,

Not CAT necessarily, but still, you need to take a national-level entrance exam required for MBA admissions.

You at least need 60% marks in a bachelor's degree and a valid CAT, MAT, XAT, CMAT, or GMAT score.

No, a BBA is not compulsory for admission to the MBA programme at GITAM (Deemed to be University) - Hyderabad Campus. The only academic requirement is a Bachelor's degree in any discipline with atleast 60% aggregate marks (or 50% for certain categories) from a recognised university.
