Is there any minimum percentage required in graduation to apply for PGDM at GIBS?

The alumni network at the Graduate Institute of Business Studies (GIBS) plays a highly active role supporting current students with job placements. There is a good number of alumni who work as mentors, sharing career development advice and their wisdom of the industry. There are also good referrals made by alumni to job opportunities at businesses in which they work. GIBS calls on alumni to help in placement drives and events, acting as a bridge between students and industry. Their affiliation provides both credibility and confidence for students. Alumni do not provide placements for all students, but they have a limiting opportunity for students and provide better referral and coaching to prepare for interviews and paths.
