IIMC, a hidden gem in the shadows of JNU

2.7Helpful

Admission:

Indian Institute of Mass Communication, a Mecca for aspiring mass communication students. The institute offers five professional courses covering all aspects of media. To study in IIMC, one should be a minimum graduate, and above the age of 21. The National Testing Agency (NTA) conducts CUET, which students have to qualify to get admission to IIMC. The test scores are evaluated and a total of four short lists are released. Usually, students with higher marks get into IIMC. The application form is made available by NTA on their official website, and it costs Rs.1000 for general, and Rs.500 for SC/ST students. 40% of seats are reserved for SC/ST and OBCs. The admission process isn't organized and as premiere institute the lack of professionalism by staff is infuriating. They need to hire better if they want to maintain the glory of this prestigious institute.
