Finances should not deter you from joining IIMA. It literally takes 15 minutes to get an education loan on the admission day in IIMA. IIMA ensures that no candidate has to drop because of financial reasons. There are several scholarships as well to support students who can not finance their studies.

Hi, thanks for the guidance. But what about the second concern. I wish to pursue HR as a career domain but am not too big on a single specialization course like XLRI. Will IIM A help in that regard of is the course and placement scenario so modified that there wouldn't be enough opportunities in HR
