Unlocking Opportunities at GIM: Insights from Dr. Hanish Rajpal on PGDM Admissions

In a recent webinar, Dr. Hanish Rajpal shared valuable insights into PGDM admission process at Goa
Institute of Management (GIM). Here’s a breakdown of key highlights from the session:
Admission Criteria: Understanding the Shortlisting Process
The primary criterion for shortlisting candidates for GIM’s PGDM program revolves around their academic and professional profiles. Dr. Rajpal emphasized that while academic excellence is crucial, GIM values achievements beyond the classroom, recognizing that diverse accomplishments can enhance a student’s profile.
Achiever’s Category: A Pathway to Success
Achiever’s Category provides a unique admissions route for candidates with exceptional achievements in areas like sports, performing arts, and significant work experience. This round allows students to showcase their unique accomplishments and, if selected, stand a chance to receive a spot offer. Dr. Rajpal explained that candidates who perform exceptionally well in the interview may receive an immediate offer, subject to meeting certain test scores.
Academic and Extracurricular Balance: Candidates with notable achievements at the national level in sports or arts, for instance, could offset a less competitive academic record.
Work Experience as a Strength: For programs such as BFS (Banking and Financial Services), relevant work experience strengthens a candidate’s profile and may increase their chances of selection.
Achiever’s Edge: Selected candidates in Achiever’s Category are assessed based on their personal interview performance, where they have a chance to demonstrate their alignment with GIM’s values and goals.
Interview Process: Making Your Mark
Interview process is a crucial stage for Achiever’s Round applicants. Dr. Rajpal advised students to focus on clarity in discussing their backgrounds, accomplishments, and motivations. Candidates should be prepared to:
Application Timelines and Next Steps
Deadline for Achiever’s Category applications is December 5, and interviews for Achiever’s will take place in mid-January. Candidates who do not receive an offer through Achiever’s Category will still have their applications reviewed in the regular admission rounds, giving them another chance to secure a place in the programme.
Dr. Rajpal concluded by encouraging prospective students to apply confidently and take advantage of the unique opportunities offered by Achiever’s Category to distinguish themselves from other applicants
The session was a wealth of information for candidates looking to navigate the admissions process effectively. With applications now open, aspiring students have the chance to showcase their unique strengths and make their mark at GIM!
