| Welcome to Sri Balaji Society |
India is going through an Industrial Revolution. Lot of companies are coming from abroad and even the Indian Companies are
going abroad. So, we all are witnessing globalization and in this environment, the Post Graduate in Management are the
most sought after human resources in the country. Not withstanding the upheavals in the global markets, India is still poised
to keep her growing phase as can be seen in the economic growth rate compared to other countries in the World. That does
not mean, any and every Post Graduate in Management will find his dream companies and dream jobs. Right person to the
right job with right attitude is the demand of the industry. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the B – Schools to select the
right candidates for the right training and course, so that at the end of the day, the students do not get disappointed. |

the parents and students. Since Sri Balaji Society is one family, we have decided that we shall go for one prospectus and
one application form where, all the courses of all the Institutes of Sri Balaji Society are listed and through which any
student can apply to any or all the courses of any or all the Institutes of Sri Balaji Society. The application form has
appropriate columns and the students should carefully fill up the same, so that, a student can get maximum opportunity to
get admitted to any of the course of Sri Balaji Society. Please note that, all the courses of Sri Balaji Society are approved by
AICTE. The MA programme mentioned above is approved by Government of Maharashtra and affiliated to University of
Pune. The Post Graduate programme offered by CMS Institute of Communications and Convergence, New Delhi is

| Selection procedure |
| |
| WRITTEN EXAMINATION |
|
We are proud to state that we accept CAT scores. BIMM and BIIB are already affiliated for this purpose. BITM and
BIMHRD are not yet affiliated to CAT due to delays on our part and the same will be done for the next admissions.
However, as CAT scores are issued to the students by the IIMs, any student who has appeared for the CAT examinations can apply for our courses with the CAT scores. Thus, all the four Management institutes will accept CAT scores. Incase,
any student has not applied for CAT, we will accept MAT scores. However, the MAT scores will be equated and validated
to the CAT score value and that will only be counted for the purpose of merit list. Anyone having any objection to the
same, need not to apply.
|
|
We are not having any cut off points as we give weightage to all the above parameters in the selection process. The exact
weightage to be given for the entrance examination will be decided based on a decision to be taken by the High Power
Committee. Thus, any one with good percentile / percentage can apply for the selection process. However, Sri Balaji
Society reserves the right to prescribe any qualitative requirement as may be required if and when considered necessary. |
| |
Aspirants for admissions should appear in the CAT to be held on 16 November, 2008, as we use the CAT score for short listing the candidates. IIMs have no role either in the selection process or in the conduct of the programme. Consequently, the Balaji Admission Test (BAT) and Spot Registration will not be held. |
| |
|
Essay Writing |
|
Written Communication Skill is very important for any one to succeed in the industry as Business Communication form an
essential part of the managerial functions. Therefore, the applicants will be required to appear for an essay writing
exercise on a subject, which will be given on the spot. This will be for half an hour. The topics will be general in nature and
any one who follows the National Newspapers can easily appear in the same and score good marks. |
| |
While we are keen to have the admission process in all the centres mentioned above and have been having many of the centres
for many years in the past, we reserve the right to cancel any of the centres depending upon the contingencies. However, it
may be noted that, the hall ticket issued by us to any centre is valid to all the centres and the students who may need a change
of centre due to any reason can automatically go to any other centre by just informing us through an e-mail and with out
expecting any response to the same. |
| |
|
HALL TICKET Issued by the Institute |
Admit Card issued to any centre is valid for all the centres and candidates can appear before the selection committee in any centre provided they have informed about their intention to appear before a selection centre other than the one mentioned in the admit card well in advance. No separate communication for change of centre will be communicated by us.

Dec 2008. That means,the students can submit the application forms without the CAT scores.They can submit the same as
when the results are declared,as we will declare the merit list much later.It may be noted that we are not going to do our short
listing based on the CAT score alone,although weightage is alloted for the same. |

|

merit list based on their overall performance. Weightage is given to written test, marks obtained in the essay writing, GD and PI.
The candidate is considered for the course which he has preferred according to the priority mentioned by him / her in the
application form. Incase, he / she is not selected to the course applied by him / her, then he / she will be considered for other
courses and selected on merit. It may be noted that, all the Management courses are of the same status and the inputs are also
similar. As we have already mentioned the placement opportunities for all the courses are very good as has been proved by the
track record of Sri Balaji Society.
|
|
It means that each institution is important and enjoys equal status and attention from the top management. We select the best
possible candidates for all the Institutes from amongst the common pool of all the candidates applied for admission to any or all
the institutes of Sri Balaji Society; although such a consideration arises only when a candidate is not selected for admission to
the particular institute to which he or she may have applied originally. By doing so, we are in no way taking away any
opportunity from anyone but are providing an additional opportunity to get selected in any of the prestigious institutes of Sri
Balaji Society. |
