Selection at IIM Udaipur depends on the programme. MBA applicants go through CAT-based shortlisting and an interview, EMBA candidates are assessed through a test score and interview, while BBA admission follows direct application and document checking.
The two-year MBA selection procedure has two stages. IIM Udaipur first prepares a shortlist using applicant profiles and then conducts Personal Interviews in Bangalore, Delhi, Mumbai or at its Udaipur campus. The institute manages this process independently and is not part of IIM CAP.
Applicants need at least 36 months of full-time work experience after graduation as of May 20, 2027. IIM Udaipur accepts GMAT, GRE or CAT scores from 2022 or later. Those without one of these scores can sit for the IIMU Test, a 120-minute online examination containing 120 multiple-choice questions.
Students from any Class XII stream may apply for IIM Udaipur's BBA if they studied under a recognised board, including NIOS. There is no entrance examination or minimum percentage cutoff. After an online application, admission is confirmed through document verification. The portal at bba.iimu.ac.in is expected to open for the 2027-31 batch in March 2027.
For the 2025 final placements, IIM Udaipur reported an average CTC of INR 20.23 LPA and a highest CTC of INR 39.37 LPA. The batch median was INR 17.00 LPA. Students in the top 20% secured an average of INR 26.86 LPA.

Both institutes are merit-based IIMs governed by the same regulatory framework. The better option depends on the student's preference for NIRF position, placement CTC, accreditation or programme fee.
