IIM CAP selection process


Candidates can refer to the steps given below for information on how to participate in CAP 2024.

Step 1: Shortlisting of Candidates

Candidates are required to clear the CAT cutoff 2023 specified by the individual IIMs to which they have applied for admission.

The list of shortlisted candidates is prepared by various IIMs and sent to the institute responsible for conducting the CAP for that particular year. CAP 2024 is being conducted by IIM Kashipur.

Step 3: Candidates Called for CAP 2024

Once the final list of candidates shortlisted for CAP 2024 has been prepared, the candidate will get an invitation to participate. The candidates who have received the call for CAP 2024 have to appear at one of the CAP 2024 test centres and participate in the next round of selection for IIMs.

Step 4: Personal Interview

Invited candidates have to appear for the personal interview, Prof Abhradeep Maiti, chairperson (Admissions) at IIM Kashipur, said in a press release that CAP 2024 PI will be conducted in online mode to reduce the burden on the candidates from travelling to different cities to appear in MBA admission interviews.

Step 6: Final Selection of Candidates by Various IIMs

The final scores of a candidate for MBA admissions are calculated by individual IIMs based on the weightage specified in their selection policy. Apart from the PI scores, a candidate's previous academic performance and work experience are also considered when evaluating them for admission to PGP / MBA / PGDM courses offered by various IIMs. Check the various parameters and weightage mentioned below for final selection in IIMs through CAP 2024.
