The Indian Institutes of Management (IIM) in Tiruchirappalli, Raipur, Kashipur, and Ranchi have launched a Joint Admission Process (JAP) for their 2026 MBA programs. This initiative, coordinated by IIM Raipur, aims to streamline the application process for prospective students.
This new joint process allows candidates to apply to all four IIMs through a single application. Eligible applicants can receive admission offers from any of the four IIMs once the CAT results are out.
Prof. Sanjeev Prashar, Director-In-Charge at IIM Raipur, stated that this collaboration highlights a commitment to efficient resource management and a student-centric admission approach. He believes JAP 2026 will maintain the high standards of the IIM brand while creating new opportunities for future business leaders.
