I want to know if foreign students can apply to UBS Ludhiana for an MBA. I searched through the website but didnt find much information.
Also, if possible can someone name me some of the other college a foreign student can apply to in Ludhiana. I know there is also PCTE, that's the 2 I know so far.
I'll really appreciate if anyone could help me.
Regards, Zuberr
It would have been nice if you had given yours full detail.Yes you can apply for seat under Foreign/NRI category.So foreign students can apply for University Business School ,Ludhiana .But one thing you must give CAT exam for that.
Thanks for replying. I am not an NRI, I'm Mauritian and currently working as a software engineer in a German company. I believe job experience is a requirement for an MBA right? I did my primary and seconday education in Mauritius.
I did a BSC in Information Technology at RMIT University in Australia and graduated with a distinction last year. I have never sat for MAT, CAT or GMAT exams, I have no idea what they are about either. I suppose they do these exams in India only.
From what I have heard is that there are sponsored seats for NRI/foreign students but the fees are usually 4 or 5 times what Indians pay. I don't want a seat like that, I want a seat for MBA only if I am worth it, not because I paid for it.

Any advice?
You Can give GMAT Exam ,Which is international Examination.Yours GMAT Score will be treated on par with any other Examination score.Work Experience will definitely works for yours advantage. One thing ,yes you have to pay more ,But in case of UBS Ludhiana ,the difference is not that much .We pay 3.08 lacs INR (ours is a self- financed course) and NRI/foriegn category guy will be paying something like 4 lacs.You can simultaneuosly apply for both UBS Chandigarh,(our parent Institute) and UBS Ludhiana.And there is nothing like paid seats for NRI/foriegn category ,You are worth it ,then only you will get it.Even Indians pay higher when they go for foriegn B-schools ,than thier local counterparts .So you have to bear with it.Still, see by any standard This MBA program will cost much less in comparison to many other B-school programs. I am sending the link of last year prospectus ,hopefully it wil be of some help to you.
Also I'd like 2 ask u that is there any sectional cutoff. In case I manage to clear the cutoff, what are the further rounds of selection and what is the probability of getting through.

we never held dhrna outside ,we just went to VC and asked for it ,as it was promised by the authorities at the time of admission. Nevermind we will work out our placement in decent way.Thats all I can say right now.

do u hav any idea abt d branches of sbi its available from??? Could not find it on website
Seniors , Plz let me know if v will hav 2 buy separate forms for UBS Ludhiana & Chd ? :new_smile-l:
The forms are common, So no need to buy separately, as a matter of fact you will get it with same handbook,Just fill them and apply. Alternatively you can download from internet.Just give one time fee of Rs 1000 in the form of DD and apply for both the institutes.One thing should be very clear in advance that admission process will be absolutely common for both the institutes.Since no extra money is charged , I think its prudent to apply for both the institutes.
