Great Lakes PGPM & PGDM 2025
ApplyAdmissions Open | Globally Recognized by AACSB (US) & AMBA (UK) | 17.3 LPA Avg. CTC for PGPM 2024 | Application Deadline: 1st Dec 2024
Dear Aspirant,
To get a call from the IIMs, your past academic records, your graduation stream, your gender, your work experience, all are considered. IIM Calcutta shortlists around 2000 candidates for the final selection round. The shortlisting criteria of IIM Calcutta are so designed that more than 40% female candidates are shortlisted by IIMC for PI-WAT.
In an average profile, you can expect a call from IIM-C at anything above 99 percentile, but for an engineer, male candidate with average acads, it is unlikely that a call will be made, however, call can be expected at 99.5+.
Hope this helps. Thank you.

According to me college has very good infrastructure is quite very good. Hostels are far better than the other colleges. There is a well-maintained library and a separate reading hall for students. Wi-Fi connection is good but some of the you have to use your own mobile data. Labs are well maintained.
