- Complete choice filling or the institutional application and keep every confirmation.
- Attend document verification and pay fees only through the institution's official channels.
Management quota and NRI admission
For PGDM and MBA, private institutions commonly fill a share of seats through management, institutional or NRI routes. Whether such seats exist at WeSchool this year, how many there are, and the approved fee must be confirmed with the institution and counselling authority.
A management or NRI seat never bypasses eligibility or a mandatory entrance exam. Be cautious of anyone offering a guaranteed seat or asking for cash payments.
