Why Pune for an MBA
Pune is often called the Oxford of the East, and its management colleges span every budget. The Symbiosis institutes admit through SNAP, Savitribai Phule Pune University's PUMBA and COEP admit through MAH-CET at very low fees, and dozens of private PGDM colleges accept CAT, XAT, CMAT and MAT.
The city's automotive, manufacturing, IT and banking sectors — plus its closeness to Mumbai — give students good internship and placement options.
