Question 1

How do I apply to JBIMS? Are there special deadlines?

Accepted Answer

JBIMS participates in the state-level CAP counseling conducted by DTE Maharashtra, typically starting after MAH‑CET results (usually May–July each year). Applicants must register for the DTE CAP rounds, entering their CAT/CMAT/MAH‑CET scores as neededjbims.edu. There is no separate JBIMS entrance or application form – selection is through the centralized DTE process. Prospective students should watch for DTE Maharashtra announcements for exact dates (often May–July) and complete online registration on the DTE website in time.

Question 2

What is the fee structure at JBIMS, and are there installment options or loans?

Accepted Answer

JBIMS is known for very affordable fees compared to other top B-schools. For example, the MMS tuition is relatively low and can be paid in installments through college banking channels. Additionally, JBIMS has an endowment fund (from the MMS 1990 batch) that offers interest-free loans to needy students. This fund can provide up to 50% of a student’s fees as a loan, repayable after graduation.

Question 3

What scholarships are available to JBIMS students?

Accepted Answer

JBIMS offers several merit- and need-based scholarships. Notably, the Smt. Jyoti Dwivedi Memorial Scholarship provides two core awards of ₹100,000 each (plus ad-hoc grants of ₹50,000) to deserving MMS students with financial needs. There are also various smaller alumni-funded and institute scholarships, often awarded based on academic performance or specific criteria. Students can inquire with the JBIMS financial aid office or alumni committees about eligibility and application procedures for these awards.
