2) Does IIMB allows, refrigerator in rooms? I am planning to get one small refrigerator....

3) Does IIMB have a graded fee structure like IIMA.


PS:Tejus007, Dude have they mentioned anything abt graded fee structure in offer letter?

~will ask for more queries later....

Hi - what do you mean by Graded fee? the fee structure was as i mentioned earlier, in addition, there are forms for people who require special assistance in the form of a concessional fee (people with income less than Rs 3 lakhs p.a). And 3 lakhs includes the income of every near and distant relative who is able / capable of helping you financially, and also the assets you hold, policies etc etc. That was the most complex document of all....

P.S - Nothing else regarding fees that I saw while going through the forms.......

graded fee structure means, that fees will be dependent on your family's annual income, like if it is 3 lac then fee is 7, 4 lac, then fee is 8 lac, and so on..IIMA has this type of fee structure this year...anyways thanks....

6. Is there a fix seat for us in the class with name tags, if yes then is it random or alphabetical....

7.Is there a swimming pool in the campus?

i have seen the campus and also the classrooms on a visit once..here's wht i can recal..

Seats are fixed in the class..alphabetical order..though tht order can be random..names with A can start frm the middle row....and names with S can be sitting in the front row..

acco for guests is available...have to request the hostel office for the same

inside campus u wnt need a bike..all classes n even the cafe day are a 5 mins walk away..

didnt see ne swimmin pool in the campus..

c u all there..

• Is there any dress code for girls? Like.. In my undergrad college, we were not allowed to wear sleeveless and skirts!
• How many sets of formals would we need? I have 2 suits, is that enough?
• Any pointers on the AV Birla scholarship? What kinda prep is required? When would the interview be?

That would be it for now.. Will shoot more later!

Although already answered, I have slightly different take on that...

1. Answered in the end

2. Yeah, you can go for cheerleading provided the state government and CPI (M) does not object to cheerleaders (refer IPL), given that WB and Kerela are Left dominated

3. No dress code, you can wear anything except to classes which anyways is not the place to look forward to dress for!

Rest of the queries are too mundane to answer...

1) is hostel stay mandatory ? or can i stay outside the wall but live in the campus ( asking as i stay next to IIMB )

2) how much is the amount of writing required at IIMB (have not used the pen for a long time)

1. Hostel stay is mandatory for all... no exceptions
2. Almost all project submissions are done here through soft copies or printed copies but you still need to write the exams with pen ... As to how much to write, it depends on how much you want to score.
