Student Snaps:

Admission:

I had applied to CMS Jain Bangalore, PES university Bangalore and Symbiosys Pune. However with few student feedback from CMS Jain and PES Bangalore I decided not to join them, when it comes to Symbiosys Pune I felt the fee structure is not financially viable for my family we we did not go with student education loan option. I choose SDMIMD comparing all the factors like faculty, placement support and the reviews from alumni students. All the students to be eligible have to complete their 10th, 12th and Undergraduate degree with not less than 60% of marks, work experience will be added advantage.
