Hello Nishar Ahmed, Suresh Gyan Vihar University was established in the year 2008 and this means that it has almost 15 years of existence. This period it has gained prominence allowance it's academics enhanced its placements records etc. on the other hand Maharshi Arvind University was established only in the year 2015. As a result of this they need to attract students to them so that their expenses can be recovered by way of fees. But being new they can't afford to keep the fees at the same level as that of an established University. As a result of this, generally speaking the level of fees of Maharishi Arvind University is definitely less than the ones charged by Suresh Gyan Vihar University. You can get further insights and minute details once you visit the official websites of these two universities or even the pages prepared by Shiksha for these two Universities.

Hello Nishar Ahmed, Suresh Gyan Vihar University was established in the year 2008 by an act passed in the legislature of Rajasthan. Therefore this private University cannot have any other campus than their original one at Jaipur. However they have a distance education branch and for this they have a tie up of technology with a company called talentedge and this is located in Chennai. So to say that Suresh Gyan Vihar University has a campus in Chennai and is it best in Chennai is not the correct way to interpret this issue. Fundamentally speaking this university is located at Jaipur in Rajasthan and cannot have any campus outside this place. Hence that is no issue of same or asking whether this university is best in Chennai or not. It is not at all located in Chennai and hence the question cannot be answered.

Hello Nishar Ahmed, Suresh Gyan Vihar University was established in 2008 and since then it has tried to improve its ranking and of course obtained the NAAC grade of "A". Maharishi Arvind University also located in Jaipur was established only recently in 2015. Both the Universities of course have the approvals from UGC & AICTE. However if we want to compare these two, then Suresh Gyan Vihar University appears to be on top. Maybe in due course of time Maharishi Arvind University will also give a tough fight for top honours and will make all out efforts to outdo the older University. This, only time can tell. Much more and detail data is available on the official websites of these two Universities and of course on the curated page Shiksha has put out for this to universities which can be utilised for additional reading and obtaining more information.

Suresh Gyan Vihar University provides admission to students for an MBA course based on any of the standard examinations conducted by nationality, such as CAT, MAT, XAT, CMAT, ATMA, and even entrance conducted by the University itself. However, scoring well in these exams is not good enough. The student must have scored at least 60% in his Bachelor's degree examination. Some relaxation is given to those students belonging to the SC or ST categories. The short-listed candidates, based on the registration done at the university portal, are then called for group discussion, personal interviews, etc. Before a final merit list is made, the students are informed of their success and then asked to deposit fees to make the admission confirmed. The above in a nutshell is the admission process for an MBA, though universities accept scores of almost all nationalities held entrance examinations for an MBA. 

Hello Nishar Ahmed, Suresh Gyan Vihar University was established as a private University located at Jaipur in the year 2008 by an act of the legislature of the Rajasthan state. Being a private University which is not funded by the state government it has to generate funds for its functioning including payment of fees to the teachers professors and also establishment of various facilities. Because of this the fees of such private entities are not comparable with the fees of government colleges or universities. Also being a University it conducts various courses and it obviously cannot charge the same fees to the students of different courses. As a result of this it charges fees for, say 1st year, of courses is as mentioned below.

For BTech it's INR 1.2L, for MBA it's INR 1.6L, for BSc it's INR 70K, for MSc it's surprisingly less at INR 69K, for BBA it's INR 64K and for BHMCT it's INR 80K. Please do remember that these fix these fees are not fixed but can vary from here to ear based on the change of input cost of various things.

Hello Nishar Ahmed, Suresh Gyan Vihar University in Jaipur accepts scores of many pan India entrance examinations conducted for admissions to MBA besides it's own entrance examination. Students seeking admission to any institution normally check the all India ranking all the state ranking of that institution and then only apply for admission. In the case of SGVU, this ranking is quite good including NIRF ranking. As a result of this, more candidates apply for admission and as a consequence of this the closing ranks increases. In such situations the particular institute invariably announces a cut off below which students cannot apply. But in the case of this private University in Jaipur, there is no mention of any such cutoff on their official website and therefore we must take it as authentic. Be that as it may, a student has to have reasonably good score in any of the common entrance examinations conducted on pan India basis for possibility of getting admission for MBA in this university.

Hello Nishar Ahmed, The Suresh Gyan Vihar University located in Jaipur, came into existence in the year 2008.

Even otherwise it has obtained or ranking of 71 out of 171 institutions across India by a private agency while NIRF has ranked it in a band of 151 to 200. This university located in Jaipur is famous for combining the best culture of our country in ethics and whatever is followed by our culture and philosophy to teach students about business administration. All in all one can see that people talk very highly about the way this university conducts its business that is its teaching to the students.

The admission criteria for entry into Suresh Gyan Vihar University, MBA, are very simple and elementary. The students who have been seeking admission to an MBA are supposed to have at least scored 50% marks in aggregate in the Class 12 examination conducted by a recognised board or university. Further concession of 5% is given to those candidates who belong to SC or ST categories. After fulfilling this eligibility requirement, the students can sign up for admission by paying a nominal amount of INR 500 as the registration fee, after which they have to appear for the entrance examination conducted by the university, known as SGVUEE. This university also accepts the ranking of the students who have appeared for the CAT, MAT, CMAT, XAT, GMAT, etc., based on their registration with the university and performance in any of the nationally conducted entrance exams for MBA, declared by the university on its website, shortlisted candidates will be called for a personal interview. Based on the personal interview, selection for the course of MBA is informed to the students. 

Hello Nishar Ahmad, unfortunately Masters' Union does not announce any cutoff marks. As a matter of fact thay even accept students for theis MBA progamme wh are not even graduates! They have an alaborate and very subjective system of evaluation and short listing of students. Initially students have to register by paying a staggering registration fees. They have to upload their CV either based on Masters' Union's sample CV or of their own. Then they can quote ranking in all the entrance tests they may have given. This is subjectively scruitinised by a committee for shortlisting of candidates. No one knows what are the criterias. Then these shortlisted candidates are subjected to personal interview, video and written essays and analysis of essays. Again a committee selects students subjectively and offers admission. Remember, this institute is not recognised by either UGC or AICTE. So students can not go anywhere for redressal of grievance if any. No cutoff anywhere!

Hello Nishar Ahmed, it is very difficult to determine what is the minimum cut off for getting admission in this Institute. This is so because the criteria for giving admission include lots and lots of things and not only the entrance exam that this Institute conducts. Through various rounds of admission process students are shortlisted to the next round and then to the next round. But here also the students are not intimated about the marking which the institute must be doing internally to select the candidates on various parameters for admission. The students are informed that they have either not been shortlisted for the next round of admission and hence they can reappear the next year or they have been shortlisted and then this is what is going to happen in the next round of the admission process. Even after the final round of admission process the successful candidates are informed that the institution is offering them a seed and they should pay the requisite fees to confirm their seat. Some students are kept in the waiting list but this waiting list is also not a merit listed waiting list. Depending on the student who decides to forgo the admission a student from the waiting list who is equivalent to this student is then asked to pay the fees and take the seat. The only saving Grace in this is that the institute informs on website that those student who have not been called to the next round after the entrance test may not appear next year again, if there is no substantial change in their CV in this intervening period.

Hello Nishar Ahmed, it is a very interesting question that every student likes to know because it gives the student an idea about the chances of getting admission. However in case of Masters' Union this possibility is just not existing. This is because this institution has announced on the websites itself that there are no cut off for seeking admission in this Institute. And this is proven by the fact that this Institute gives admissions for this supposedly equivalent to MBA course, to even those students who are not even graduate in any branch. They do not publish the ranking obtained by the students in the entrance examination which they conduct called MUBAAT but instead communicate to the students about their being shortlisted and then they call them for the next round of admission process. Even here the students are individually informed about their being selected and offered the admission while others are intimated that they are in the waiting list and to others that they have not made the cut. As a result of this elaborate procedure no one can find out what is the cut off.

Hello Nishar Ahmed, the answer to this question could vary as per the perception of any person who is writing about this. However I will make an honest attempt to point out how this institution is unique from any other normal business School. The first unique thing that strikes about this institution is the exorbitant fees that they are charging including very stiff registration charges. Rupees 70000 is quite high when compared with registration fees of any other standard business school or for that matter any other educational Institute. Another unique thing is the restriction in intake of the students for class. They have restricted it to only 60. This is ostensibly for the reason that only because of the small number of the students admitted, they are able to give attention personally to each and every student in his /her pursuit of excellence in business administration. Maybe to keep themselves unique or to maintain their niche in the world of business schools getting established at every look and corner of the country they have kept their tuition fees at a very high level of about rupees 35 lakhs. They have a tie up with plethora of industries in India and abroad where their students undergo 3 months of internship to hone their skills. Another unique and fascinating thing is the median salary which the students have obtained at about rupees 38 Lacs which is very high considering the Indian atmosphere for placements.

Hello Nishar Ahmed, no student cannot join the Masters' Union directly. I will explain in short subsequently how the admission process takes place. 

   Every student first has to upload his CV or career graph along with co-curricular activities etc. either by following a sample CV available on the website of this Institute or a student can make his own. After having done this and after having paid the registration fee this Institute conducts written test for each and every student on the Sunday after the close of registration date. This examination is called MUBAAT. The institution's admission committee then goes through the response of the students to this test and also the CV which they have uploaded at the time of registration and then shortlists the students. These students are then called for the next round in which they conduct interview, group discussion, essay writing including video essays and then analysis of essays etc. based on this the institute makes a probable list of 60 candidates and then they are offered admission which a student has to take by paying the requisite fees. Some candidates are kept in the reserve but there is no merit list. If any student from the main list does not take admission for any reason then a student who is equivalent to this drop out is called up and offered the seat for admission. This is how the complete admission process is completed and then the 16 months of the course begins. 

Best wishes to you.
