Eligibility Criteria
SPJIMR’s flagship PGDM and PGDM(BM) require a recognised bachelor’s degree or equivalent. The current admissions cycle uses CAT/GMAT and a profile-based selection process; applicants should use the current programme notice for the exact academic and test conditions.
What applicants should verify before submitting the form
- Qualifying degree: confirm the exact degree/discipline requirement for the programme.
- Minimum marks: use the category-specific percentage or CGPA stated in the current official notice.
- Entrance score: confirm the accepted test and the relevant examination year.
- Final-year status: check the deadline for submitting proof of graduation.
- Work experience: do not assume it is mandatory unless the programme notice says so.
Admission Process: Step-by-Step
SPJIMR’s admissions route is programme-specific and profile-sensitive. Applicants should complete the institute application, submit the accepted test score, undergo shortlisting and then complete the institute’s selection stages as notified. Do not copy an older process into a new cycle.
Application to offer
- Read the current programme-specific admission notice.
- Check eligibility before paying the non-refundable application fee.
- Enter academic, test-score and work-experience information exactly as supported by documents.
- Upload certificates and scorecards required by the institute.
- Complete the institute’s shortlist, PI, WAT, written test or other notified selection stage.
- After an offer, compare the total payable cost and joining deadline before accepting.
Cutoff & Selection Criteria
SPJIMR does not reduce selection to one published percentile. CAT/GMAT performance is considered alongside profile and selection-stage performance. A realistic target should therefore be presented as an editorial benchmark only if clearly labelled.
Fees and Total Cost
Use the current SPJIMR fee schedule for the applicable batch. Separate academic fees, hostel/accommodation, mess, deposits and other mandatory charges where published.
| Cost head | How it should be treated | Official-data rule |
|---|---|---|
| Academic / tuition fee | Core programme cost | Use current batch fee notice |
| Hostel / accommodation | Mandatory where residential | Separate if billed separately |
| Mess / boarding | Recurring living expense | Use institute’s published amount |
| Deposit | Usually one-time; may be refundable | Check offer/fee notice |
| Insurance / student charges | Additional mandatory cost where applicable | Do not hide inside tuition |
Decision rule: compare the full two-year cash outflow, not only the advertised tuition figure.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the main admission route for SPJIMR Mumbai?
What is the minimum eligibility for the flagship management programme?
Is the published cutoff a guaranteed admission percentile?
No. A screening threshold only establishes eligibility for consideration. Final conversion depends on the institute’s complete selection methodology and competition.
How should I calculate the actual cost of the programme?
Add every mandatory academic and residential charge, then add mess/boarding, insurance, deposits and other recurring charges listed by the institute. Do not treat refundable deposits as permanent academic fees.
Which placement number should I use when comparing colleges?
Prefer median CTC where available, then average CTC and role/sector distribution. Highest CTC should be treated as an exceptional outcome rather than the expected salary.
