Application Process
ELIGIBILITY
We currently accept only MBA or Doctoral students (of business management or
related fields) from our partner institutions. Though proficiency in oral and
written English is required to follow the instruction at IIMC, there is no
mandatory TOEFL/TSE requirement.
APPLICATION
If your Institute is among our exchange partners contact the Dean/Official in
charge of your exchange programs for further details. A formal letter from the
Dean of your Institute certifying that you are a bona-fide student of your
Institute and confirming your selection for the exchange program must be
submitted to us at least two months prior to the commencement of the term (see
schedule for details). This is to ensure that you can apply for a visa as early
as possible. You are also required to send us your CV(Curriculum Vitae – the CV
must have a photograph) . The above materials can be faxed under the title “ATTN
: STEP STUDENT
STEP OFFICE
Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta
Joka, Diamond Harbour Road
Kolkata – 700104
West Bengal,
India
After we receive these documents, we shall fax/mail you an undertaking from IIMC
which indicates that you have been accepted as an exchange student at IIM
Calcutta. This will help in your visa process. Post your selection for IIMC, you
are anyway encouraged to be in constant touch through e-mail in case you have
any doubts/ require any help with regard to any other formalities required prior
to your arrival. In any case, about a month prior to your arrival here, we will
assign you a student mentor who will help you with any questions that you may
have and will subsequently aid you in getting settled on campus post your
arrival here.
In the absence of any pre-registration, usually, you choose your courses after
arrival here. The first week from the beginning of the term is usually
designated as ‘shopping’ week where you can attend different course offerings
and decide what courses you want to take. About one week into the term, you
register for your chosen courses (notwithstanding the dates given the schedule)
If your institute is not one of our partner institutes, then you should get in
touch with us at step[AT]iimcal.ac.in as well as the dean of your institute to
initiate a relationship. We actively seek the best international business
schools for an exchange tie-up.
