Hello Sanchit Gulia,


IISM is the first & only of its kind sports management institute in India. The journey that started almost a decade ago with just an offering into post graduate diploma, later expanded into offering the only degree programs in association with the University Of Mumbai.


All programs are meticulously planned & designed to facilitate candidate’s holistic development.


While pursuing their career into sports management with IISM, students are not only offered internship & placement opportunities with the best sports companies where they get practical knowledge and work on case studies but are also backed with dynamic & robust curriculum led by expert faculties from within the industry.


At IISM, they encourage a culture of knowledge sharing and give our students opportunities to explore & widen their horizons by providing various platforms as different forums and seminars. IISM has been associated with the likes of FICCI, CII and many more.


Most of alumni have walked out of the campus with a job with the best sports companies in hand. IISM is proud to be associated with more than 200 sports companies.


SMAT – Sports Management Admission Test is an online entrance test to apply for admission at IISM.


The test is specially designed to cater to a very specific domain – i.e. sports management.


SMAT comes with a 30% weightage for sports-related questions, even though the test focuses on Sports Awareness, it’s not just about Records or Sports Celebrities but about every aspect of the sporting ecosystem. Hence, students are expected to be well acquainted with the sports industry as a whole.


This exam is conducted online & candidates will have to come at the allotted test center to appear for the test.

Hope this will help.

The final list of selected candidates is prepared by taking into account the marks obtained by the candidate in SMAT and his/her performance in GD-PI.

Candidates who appear for MAH-CET-MBA/MMS and obtain 55 percentile (Open category) and 45 percentile (Reserved Category) do not need to appear for SMAT. Such candidates need to submit SMAT form and pay the fee. These candidates are directly eligible for the GD-PI rounds.
