NIT Calicut MBA admission is based on percentile obtained by candidates in the Common Admission Test (CAT).

Based on the performance of candidates in the CAT followed by the GDPI process, the institute declares the merit list for selected candidates. There is no minimum CAT percentile stipulated by NIT Calicut. General category candidates who have obtained somewhere around 80 percentile in the CAT can apply for admission to the MBA programme. However, mere application does not mean a guaranteed call for the GDPI process.

The CAT percentile could be less for the reserved category candidates. Although, the minimum CAT percentile required for admission is not stated by the institute, candidates must meet the minimum eligibility criteria before applying for admission to the MBA programme as mentioned below:
