Check the current intake and deadline first
As checked on 6 November 2026, ISME’s homepage lists PGDM 2027-29 and BBA and B.Com + ACCA 2027-30 applications. The PGDM card also labels its call “Early Action” and gives 3 November 2026 as the deadline. That date has passed. The admissions process page describes rolling review in the order applications are completed, but gives no later closing date. The pages do not establish whether the regular PGDM round is still open. Before paying, ask admissions which round is accepting applications now and what deadline applies to your programme. ISME homepage · admission process
For BBA and B.Com + ACCA, the homepage lists the 2027-30 intake as open, but the reviewed admissions page gives neither a closing date nor a separate 2027-30 calendar. Treat “open” as the current website notice, not a guarantee that applications or seats will remain available. Use the official UG application route and confirm the deadline before arranging documents or payment.
PGDM eligibility and entrance tests
ISME describes its PGDM as a two-year, full-time postgraduate programme. The programme page requires at least 60% aggregate in a bachelor’s or master’s degree from a recognised institution, in any stream. Its FAQ also says current final-year degree students may apply. If you are still studying, confirm what provisional marks or final documents are required and by when. Work experience is described as an important consideration, not a minimum eligibility requirement. PGDM eligibility and FAQ
The FAQ names CAT, XAT, NMAT, CMAT, ATMA and GMAT, and says a CAT score must be submitted at joining. Elsewhere, the programme’s selection-stage paragraph names CAT/XAT/CMAT, while the general application checklist lists CAT/GMAT/CMAT/XAT or another MAT test. The official pages do not make clear whether applicants using GMAT, NMAT or ATMA must also submit CAT. Do not assume the lists are interchangeable. Ask admissions to confirm in writing which test you may use to apply and what score is required before enrolment. PGDM programme page · application checklist
ISME does not publish a test-wise minimum score or a formula assigning weight to school marks, graduation, test score, work experience and interview. Meeting the degree threshold makes you eligible to apply; it does not predict an offer. The programme page says the committee reviews academic performance, test score and the interview-panel recommendation.
PGDM application steps and documents
The programme page describes three stages: complete the online form with the required documents; take part in the statement-of-purpose round, group discussion and personal interview; then await the committee’s decision. Shortlisted applicants receive an offer. Admission becomes final after the candidate confirms acceptance and pays the registration fee. The page says a fee paid after acceptance is non-refundable and that an applicant may apply only once. Check the terms shown on the live form before paying, and do not submit a second application to resolve a missing document. PGDM selection process
The general PG checklist names a résumé, official marks records for graduation, Class 12 and Class 10, a statement of purpose and an entrance-test score. The process page lists an application fee of ₹1,200, payable online or by demand draft, but does not tie this amount to the 2027-29 batch. Verify the current amount and payment instructions on the live form. The PGDM application form is linked from the programme page; use this route rather than an aggregator. application checklist · PGDM page
Undergraduate applicants: BBA and B.Com + ACCA
ISME’s homepage lists BBA and B.Com + ACCA for the 2027-30 batch. The published BBA route combines the Bangalore University-affiliated degree with a diploma in Business Analytics and AI and an international business certificate from MDIS, Singapore. The B.Com route is paired with ACCA, a postgraduate diploma in International Finance and an MDIS international business certificate. These are distinct add-on pathways; check the exact degree award and components in the programme page and offer before accepting. ISME homepage · admission process
For undergraduate admission, the general process page requires a completed two-year Pre-University course under a State Board, CBSE, ICSE, IB or equivalent system, with at least 60% marks and oral and written English proficiency. It says applicants considered to have strong potential may be called for an expert-panel interview. The document checklist asks for Class 10 and Class 12 marks records. The reviewed page does not specify a common entrance test or score threshold for these two courses; ask whether a programme-specific assessment applies to the 2027-30 intake. UG eligibility and documents
The process page also lists a ₹1,200 UG application fee without a 2027-30 label. Confirm the amount, document format and interview schedule on the live form. No fixed final application date for either UG course appears in the reviewed admissions material.
Questions to settle before paying
Use the official PGDM page for the graduate route and the UG application page for BBA or B.Com + ACCA. Ask for written confirmation of the active application round and last date, the test accepted for your programme, whether CAT is required at joining if you apply with another test, the final-year applicant’s document deadline, and the amount and refund terms shown in the live form. Keep the reply with your application.
The admissions page lists ISME’s address as Sy. No. 88, Chembanahalli, near Dommasandra Circle, Sarjapur Road, Bengaluru 562125, Karnataka. The reviewed official pages do not publish a programme-specific closing-score distribution or a complete selection-weight formula. Treat the published eligibility and steps as application requirements, not a forecast of admission. admission process and address
