Which WeSchool programme fits your intended role?

This companion page focuses on choosing a specialisation, rather than simply listing the programme portfolio. The curriculum and placement mix differ by programme, so select based on the work you want to do after graduation.

What evidence should you review before choosing?

Open the official programme structure and current placement report. Look for compulsory courses, electives, internship requirements, live projects, assessment style and job functions for the same programme and batch.

  • Does the syllabus teach skills used in your target roles?
  • Are internships/field projects compulsory and what support is provided?
  • Which job functions actually hired from the programme?
  • Is median salary available, or only average/highest CTC?
  • What is the full fee plus Mumbai living costs?

Historical 2023–25 placement figures must be labelled as such; they are not guaranteed outcomes for a future batch.

How should you compare fees and outcomes?

Use the current fee schedule for your intake and add living expenses, deposits, travel and other costs. Compare the total against median salary and role outcomes where published. A highest package from one programme is not a fair substitute for another programme's median.

The official WeSchool page publishes different figures across programmes. They are programme-level historical indicators, not guaranteed individual results.

What is a practical decision process?

  1. Choose two or three target job roles.
  2. Map each role to the programme's courses and projects.
  3. Compare programme-specific role outcomes and median pay, if published.
  4. Calculate total cost and downside risk.
  5. Confirm eligibility, exam acceptance and deadlines for your batch.
