Remarks:

The good things about the college are 100% placement with good ROI, Great and experienced teaching staff with good knowledge about Insurance and Management subjects. Colleges do not enough focus on promotion. Eligibility of course is you should have a graduation degree in any stream and should have a certain minimum percentage of marks in it. All information related to admission forms, fees, and dates is given on the college website. Reservation benefits are there for OBC and ST castes. CAT, XAT, and CMAT are the exams one can take to get admission here where CAT being the toughest and CMAT being the easiest. Clear information regarding dates and cutoffs should be provided. They took online interviews. Interview questions were general not very hard. They asked me about hobbies, college background, why NIA, what is your understanding of Insurance, etc. I prepared for that by making my notes with the help of YouTube.

Remarks:

As I had decided to do an MBA after graduation, I was looking for a specialization then I got to know about the PGDM in Insurance. So after doing a lot of research and talking with many people, I got to know about the National Insurance Academy (NIA) Pune, which is one of the premier institutes for Insurance studies. So I decided to be admitted to NIA. Firstly you have to apply for college on the official website of the National Insurance Academy. Then after shortlisting you will get a call for the admission process. Talking about the admission process there was a Group Discussion and then PI. The cut-off score for CAT - 75 %, C-mat- 86%. For GD / PI I had prepared a about the Insurance and current Group discussion topics.

Yes, there are GDPI rounds held after shortlisting the candidates based on their CAT/CMAT scores. The college conducted the admission process hassle-free and all the doubts were catered well. The total score was a result of 10+12+graduation grade+ cat/cat score+ dpi score. The final list was released quickly and the induction process started immediately. Enough time was provided for fee payment and loan facility adjustment. I prepared for the GDPI rounds through digital platforms like YouTube and Google.

Remarks:

I was always more intrigued by the finance area. And wanted to explore this field. Insurance being the new rising sector, sunrise industry with a cagr of more than 14%. This motivated me to take admission here and learn about insurance and risk management. I gave CMAT 2023 and scored 99.16 percentile. I applied for NIA, and gave a GD and PI round, to get admission. The cut-offs for 2024 are CAT - 75, XAT- 85, CMAT -95 PERCENTILE. The campus is in the heart of Balewadi and is a 32-acre campus. Hostels are allotted on merit-based and are charged, separately. As the college was incorporated under the Ministry of Finance, Government of India, and PSU such as LIC, GIC, etc. it has a great reputation.
