    GIBS does not publish an official acceptance rate; however, overall admissions are considered moderately competitive based on available pointers. Selection will be based on various factors, such as entrance scores, academic profile, and a good performance in the GD/PI rounds, which carry considerable weightage. The institute accepts all sets of exam scores such as CAT, MAT, XAT, CMAT, ATMA, etc., with regular cutoffs such as around 60 percentile for exams like ATMA. Batch data also reflects that 76% of PGDM students are freshers, which means that while many applicants have been admitted, candidates still need to possess a strong profil

    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. It's not too hard to get in if you meet the criteria and perform well in the GD and PI.

    GIBS Business School does not publicly disclose a fixed acceptance rate, but admissions are moderately competitive.

     The PGDM programme requires a valid score in national-level entrance exams like CAT, XAT, CMAT, MAT, ATMA, or GMAT, followed by group discussion and personal interview.

    For BBA, selection is based on academic performance, a Statement of Purpose, and an online interview.

    While GIBS is known for its inclusive approach, strong academic records and entrance scores improve chances of admission.
