Hi Priya,

Majority of Business Schools in India take in students through competitive entrance exams namely CAT, XAT, ATMA, CMAT, MAT and so on. But there are many private institutions who provide admissions to students without any entrance exams. This is mainly through management quota.

Factors to consider:

1.  Create a list of colleges which do provide admissions without entrance exams

2. Visit the college directly to get better information about the infrastructure and facilities provided there

3. Figure out whether the particular college has AICTE or UGC approval.

Please avoid Consultants or Brokers in India who charge a particular amount of money to provide admissions.

I have created a list of colleges that will accept your candidature without an entrance score. The list comprises of the college name, location, and the fees.

All these colleges are Tier 4 colleges, please consider colleges which are Tier 1 or Tier 2 for better career prospects.
