CGC University, Mohali — School of Management (MBA)
Last updated 4 September 2026 · Reviewed by Piyush Agarwal · Latest change: Initial sourced profile published from the official MBA (Finance) programme page (semester fee, examination fee, CGCUET and CUET scholarship grids, dual specialisation, scholarship history) and the School of Management page (programme family) — both rendered and opened 4 September 2026; MBA-specific eligibility disclosed as unverified
The short answer
As of September 2026, CGC University Mohali admits MBA students through its own CGCUET — which doubles as the scholarship test — or a CUET percentile, with published grids running to a 100% waiver. The verified MBA (Finance) costs Rs 1,05,000 per semester, Rs 4,20,000 across two years, with dual specialisation among four fields.
Selection process
- Sit the CGCUET — the university's own entrance-cum-scholarship test — or apply with a CUET percentile, which carries its own published scholarship grid.
- The CGCUET grid is printed in points: 93 points and above earns a 100% scholarship; slabs run downward from 90-92.99 points.
- Choose the MBA specialisation — the verified Finance page lists dual specialisation with Human Resource Management, Business Analytics, Marketing and Operations Management.
- Complete admission with the university; the programme's MBA Plus ecosystem (industry certifications, live projects, mentorship) is folded into the same fee.

Is there a management quota here?
CGC University Mohali publishes the same transparent pattern as its Mohali neighbour: an own test (CGCUET) whose score fixes both admission and scholarship on a printed grid, plus a CUET-percentile scholarship table — and no management-quota percentage anywhere on the page we opened on 4 September 2026. The page also prints the scholarship programme's growth from Rs 5 crore awarded to 400+ students in 2021 to Rs 12 crore for 2,500+ students — a published, score-based discount system, not a discretionary seat sale. An offer of a CGC seat outside the CGCUET/CUET grids contradicts the university's own page.
CGC University Mohali — the Chandigarh Group of Colleges institution at Jhanjeri — completes the tricity’s private-university triangle, and it does so at the segment’s lowest verified price: Rs 1,05,000 a semester, Rs 4,20,000 for the two-year MBA, before a scholarship grid that starts at a full waiver. The pattern is the same one its Mohali neighbour runs — an own test whose score fixes both admission and discount — and the grids are printed for anyone to check.
What should an applicant plan for?
The instrument is CGCUET, the university’s own entrance-cum-scholarship test, with a parallel CUET-percentile grid for students who already hold one. Score 93 points or better on the printed grid and the scholarship is 100%. The MBA itself runs as a dual specialisation — Finance pairs with HRM, Business Analytics, Marketing or Operations Management — and the wider family includes a KPMG-collaborated Fintech variant and EY/IBM Business Analytics variants, plus an ‘MBA Plus’ layer of industry certifications folded into the same fee.
Two honest gaps stay visible on our page. The programme page’s eligibility block is a generic template quoting Class-12 criteria, so we publish no MBA graduation bar — ask the admissions office for it in writing. And the scholarship history (Rs 5 crore in 2021 growing to Rs 12 crore) is the university’s own printed claim, which we label as such. The tricity guide weighs this door against UBS, Chandigarh University and Chitkara.
One caution we print everywhere: the CGCUET/CUET grids are the entire pricing system. A ‘package seat’ offered at a number that does not fall off those grids is an invented number, and the check takes five minutes on the official page.

Questions, answered
- How does admission to CGC University Mohali's MBA work?
- Through the university's own CGCUET — an entrance test that doubles as the scholarship instrument — or through a CUET percentile, which carries a parallel published scholarship grid. The CGCUET grid is printed in points, with 93 and above earning a 100% scholarship. The verified MBA (Finance) page lists dual specialisation across HRM, Business Analytics, Marketing and Operations Management.
- What is the CGC University Mohali MBA fee?
- The verified figure from the official MBA (Finance) page, opened 4 September 2026: Rs 1,05,000 per semester — Rs 4,20,000 across the two-year programme, plus an examination fee of Rs 1,000. That is the lowest private-university MBA fee we have verified in the tricity, before any scholarship slab applies.
- Does CGC University Mohali have a management quota?
- No published one. The doors the university prints are CGCUET and CUET, both tied to published scholarship grids — a score-based system where everyone with the same score pays the same fee. The page prints the scholarship programme growing from Rs 5 crore in 2021 to Rs 12 crore. A 'seat package' priced outside those grids contradicts the university's own page.
- Is CGC University the same as Chandigarh Group of Colleges?
- Yes — the institution is the Chandigarh Group of Colleges' university, now branded CGC University, Mohali, at Jhanjeri. Its School of Management runs the MBA family including the KPMG-collaborated Fintech variant and EY/IBM Business Analytics variants.
- What should I confirm before applying to CGC's MBA?
- Two things on the official pages. First, the MBA-specific graduation bar — the programme page's eligibility block is a generic template quoting Class-12 criteria, so ask the admissions office for the MBA bar in writing. Second, your exact net fee from the CGCUET or CUET scholarship grid — the grids are published, so compute your slab before paying anything.
