Remarks :
As IIM Jammu comes under CAP call, I received CAP call. I cleared all the minimum criteria of CAT Sectionals for eligibility as I availed for OBC reservation criteria; I get calls even with lower percentile in some sectionals. I got called for EOI (Expression of Interest). Then they shortlisted the students for the Personal Interview round. PI happened online due to Covid. My interview was focused on my past, graduation, and why MBA. Once interviews were over, the college started clearing the waitlist. Here IIM Jammu doesn't show your waitlist number, and this makes everyone who is waiting for a call restless. There should be a waitlist number for students so they can take further decisions.
Course Curriculum Overview :
I chose MBA core as this is a flagship course. Faculty at IIM Jammu are experienced Ph.D. holders from top institutes from all around the world. Exams are case-based and open books that are very easy to pass, but you need to focus on daily learnings from sessions.
Placement Experience :
Placements at IIM Jammu are better than most of the new-generation IIMs in India. MBA batch 2021-23 may have placements near about 15 LPA. For the batch 2020-22, it was 13.5 LPA. All the eligible students get placement in companies all around the world. Institute provides students with internship opportunities for summers.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
IIM Jammy hiked their fees recently, and they keep increasing them by 8-15% yearly. Institutes will provide you best library solutions along with Bloomberg Lab for finance enthusiasts. Campus placement at IIM Jammu can cross more than 15 LPA average for batch 2021-23.
Campus Life :
IIM Jammu is operating in transit campus as it will move all its operations to Jagti in July 2023. The new campus is located on hills for 200 Acres of land. More than 10 committees and 20 clubs actively work at the institute. Empyrean is the flagship annual fest of IIM Jammu.
Hostel Facilities :
Students at IIM Jammu face problems in hostel facilities due to the transit campus, which will get resolved once everyone gets transferred to new hostels. The new hostel consists of Single sharing rooms, personal air conditioning, a hillside view, an ample cupboard, and much more. Hostel and mess are mandatory for all the students. Mess food is not up to the mark but they are trying to improve. It represents dishes from all over India.
Interview Experience :
It was the time of Covid in India after the CAP call; we got our interview schedule. Our interview happened online, where there were five panelists from multiple items. There was now WAT and GD. The interview was based on experience, current affairs, and GK. Questions such as highest civilian, gallantry award, finance rates, etc.
