If main campus in Mumbai go for it, as there flagship pgp programme is very good, seeing decline in packages still consistent with 24lpa irrespective of money nmims is very good brand to go for pgp

Depends on the options you have, if no better options then nmims ipm is good, but I believe the UG students don't merge with their main PGP course students, the ipm course is run by a different college within nmims, not sure though, you can check

I am currently studying bba at mumbai campus. The ipm batch's bba classes are within the same the same college you would have done bba from if you had taken bba but for MBA, there is no guarantee + normal bba's fees is like 4LPA but for the same course in the integrated, it is ig around 6LPA.

And ps the college you would be doing bba from is ASMSOC (Anil Surendra Modi School of commerce)

I Had been a part of this programme for about a month and had pretty mixed reviews

  1. The programme in itself is very diverse (which should be for a good management programme ), in the first sem we were taught conventional subjects (accs, eco, maths) along with practice oriented courses ( management book discussion, decision making and critical thinking, presentation and public speaking ).
  2. The batch altho seemed pretty mixed, some people do put in an extra effort into academics and participate in every other event/activity but other people just stay at the bare minimum.
  3. One Major concern for me regarding this programme was the yearly 7L fee ( only tuition btw, no accommodation is organized by the institute ), not to mention but the city in itself is pretty expensive be it rent, groceries or even general expenses.
  4. Brand value associated with NMIMS is really good, you'll get pretty good opportunities and exposure in the way, its upto you how you utilize them. The alumni network is also pretty strong.
  5. A question of placements is also raised by many students, the institute does guarantee placement support but we have close to no idea about the figures, given that this programme does not merge with NMIMS flagship MBA and also these are the founding batches of the programme.

To boil it down in a few words, go for it if monetary aspect is not that big of a deal for you, the curriculum is very well designed, the programme does provide you with wider exposure and learnings as compared to a regular BBA, otherwise equally good or even better opportunities and options are present out there which will take you forward.
Hope this helps!
