The Assistant Dean, Ms. Sundari, said, aWe are seeking to admit
students whose aspirations are high and whose achievements demonstrate
such aspirations. We are looking for candidates who are in the top ten
percentile based on the CAT/XAT exams or the GMAT. However, our
admission is based on a complete profile of the applicant. While
academic brilliance is important, we believe that active participation
in performing arts or sports or demonstrated leadership in activities,
adds to a complete profilea.
