Admission Process Overview
The admission process for the MBA program at Mahindra University Telangana is highly competitive and merit-based. Prospective students must first register online through our official website and submit all required documents along with the application fee. The process includes multiple stages, each designed to assess a candidate's academic excellence, leadership potential, and fit for the program.
Step one involves submitting an online application form with details about personal information, educational background, work experience (if any), and career aspirations. Candidates must also upload scanned copies of their academic certificates, passport-size photographs, and signature.
Following the initial submission, candidates undergo document verification by our admissions committee. This stage ensures that all submitted information is accurate and complete. Any discrepancies may lead to disqualification from the selection process.
The second stage involves conducting an entrance examination or evaluating performance in standardized tests such as CAT, GMAT, or XAT. Candidates who qualify in this stage proceed to the next round of assessment which includes a Group Discussion (GD) and Personal Interview (PI). These rounds are crucial for assessing communication skills, analytical abilities, and overall personality traits.
Based on the combined scores from all stages, a merit list is prepared. Shortlisted candidates are invited for final counseling sessions where they can choose their preferred courses based on available seats and their preferences. Seat allocation follows a transparent system that considers rank, category, and preference order.
