IIMs Expand Undergraduate Admissions Using JEE Scores and Integrated Programmes
Several Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) now offer undergraduate programmes accessible after Class 12, expanding beyond their traditional postgraduate focus. Institutes like IIM Lucknow, Mumbai, and Sambalpur accept JEE Main or JEE Advanced scores for admission into courses combining management with technology and analytics. Others, such as IIM Indore and Rohtak, continue with their own entrance-based Integrated Programme in Management (IPM). IIM Bangalore also offers a BBA with multiple admission routes, including JEE Main and CUET, broadening access to management education.
