SVKM's NMIMS School of Business Management will open applications for its MBA programme on Aug. 20, 2026 [1].

The opening marks the start of the recruitment cycle for a new batch of students. This process is central to the institution's goal of integrating industry engagement and technology-enabled education into its academic framework [3].

Applications will be accepted across six campuses [1]. The institution brings more than 45 years of experience in management education to this intake [2].

The school said the current academic approach focuses on experiential learning to better prepare students for the professional landscape [3]. By combining this with industry engagement, the school aims to strengthen its educational delivery across its network of campuses [3].

While most reports focus on the Aug. 20 start date, some records indicate these admissions are for the 2027-28 academic cycle [3]. Prospective students can apply to any of the six available locations [1].

The launch of the application window allows NMIMS to refresh its student cohort using a model that prioritizes technology and industry partnerships. By scaling the application process across six campuses, the institution is leveraging its long-term presence in management education to maintain a broad reach in a competitive academic market.
