First of all, Thank you external relations cell @PGPEX-VLM for setting up this page. I have 2 queries w.r.t. to the application form
1. What needs to be mentioned in the mail body when recommenders are forwarding the recommendation letter to the VLM office mail id?would applicant name and admission batch suffice?
2. Where i work, officiated external communications (representing the company) are through HR dept and no one else. As a result none of the core functional heads carry any officiating seal with them. Some suggestions on this account pls.
I wish to apply for IIT Kanpur/IIM C for its prestigious course for manufacturing professionals i.e. VLM Course but VLM notificaton has brought professionals like us under great confusion since other good One Year MBA Programmes of MDI and XLRI selection process test is also going to take place on 8 Jan 2017.
This has created problem since all three mentioned institutes have top one yr MBA Programme which an aspirant student cannot afford to miss.
Looking forward for your advise how to face such a difficult situation.

I have couriered application form and documents by today itself by DTDC.They are saying that there is 1%chance of delivering the courier on 8th. In that case will my application be rejected?? My recommendations have been mailed by my seniors.
@PGPEX-VLM my courier status shows the application was attempted for delivery today. My recommendation letters have been emailed. As I read through the thread below should the email be sent to [email protected]?
