Aurora's School of Business (Church P.G. College) Application/Admission Process

Aurora's School of Business (operating under the broader Aurora Consortium / Church P.G. College in the Rangareddy and Hyderabad region of Telangana) offers AICTE-approved, industry-integrated Post Graduate Diploma in Management (PGDM) and Master of Business Administration (MBA) programs. The institution provides multi-disciplinary specializations across Marketing, Finance, Human Resource Management, Operations, and Business Analytics. Admissions are governed by a merit evaluation process combining academic performance, entrance exam scorecards, internal assessment tests, and group interaction rounds.

Admission Process

The admission procedure across Aurora's business schools and PG centers follows a structured evaluation model:

  • Online / Offline Registration: Candidates can register by submitting the application form through the official portal or by procuring the physical application form directly from the campus admission desk.

  • Application Screening: Submitted applications undergo initial verification based on academic eligibility criteria and national or state entrance test rank cards.

  • Institutional Entrance Assessment (AMAT): Applicants who have not taken a national management entrance exam must sit for Aurora's Management Aptitude Test (AMAT), available through online or on-campus testing modes.

  • Selection Rounds (GD & PI): Shortlisted candidates participate in Group Discussion (GD) and Personal Interview (PI) sessions designed to evaluate communication proficiency, logical reasoning, managerial orientation, and problem-solving aptitude.

  • Composite Weightage Evaluation: Final seat offers are generated based on a composite score calculated from multiple parameters:

    • National / State Entrance Test Score (CAT / MAT / XAT / CMAT / ATMA / TG ICET) or AMAT Score: 40% weightage

    • Undergraduate Academic Performance: 30% weightage

    • Personal Interview and Group Discussion Performance: 20% weightage

    • Extracurricular Achievements / Relevant Work Experience: 10% weightage

  • Seat Offer & Enrollment: Selected applicants receive formal provisional offer letters and complete document verification and commitment fee payment to secure their admission.
