- Recognition first. The university and the exact MBA programme must be UGC-DEB recognised for your session. Use our UGC-DEB approval checker and confirm on deb.ugc.ac.in.
- Accreditation. NAAC grade, and AICTE approval where applicable, show the quality of the institution as a whole, not of the online MBA alone.
- Total cost, not just the headline fee. Compare the total fee, EMI options and what is included. Our EMI calculator and ROI calculator help.
- Eligibility and exam mode. Check minimum marks, and whether exams are taken from home or at a centre. Below 50% in graduation? Read our guide to online master's programmes for lower marks.
- Specialization fit. Pick the school that offers the specialization you actually need, such as Finance, HR, Analytics or Operations.
- Get it in writing. Ask for the current fee, refund rules and recognition status in writing before you pay.
