T.A. PAI MANAGEMENT INSTITUTE

AdmissionsProcedure

TAPMI has adopted a two stage process for admitting candidates to the PGDM Programmes. Valid CAT/ GMAT scores are mandatory pre-requisites to qualify for the admission process. Scores of GMAT 2009/2010/2011 are acceptable in addition to CAT 2010 to screen candidates for the second stage consisting of Group-discussion/Case Analysis/Interviews or other evaluation components the Institute deems fit. For admission to PGDM (Healthcare Management) alone, the Institute conducts a separate test, TAPMI Admission Test (TAT) in the month of February 2011. This test is in addition to letting candidates apply through CAT/GMAT scores for PGDM(HCM).

Based on scores in CAT / GMAT and academic excellence, work experience, extra-curricular and clarity of purpose, candidates are short-listed and invited to participate in the subsequent TAPMI Admissions Process (GD/PI) to be held at Bangalore, New Delhi, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Kolkata and Manipal. CAT is used only for short-listing. IIMs have no role in the selection process or conduct of the PGDM programme. Final Selection will be based on performance in the TAPMI Admissions Process.
