AMPI FAQs

AMPI is a rigorous and challenging programme. It is designed as a 12-month, modular programme with four residencies, delivered in a blended learning format (on-line and off-line classes) that minimises disruption at work.

We endeavour to provide our students with an experience of both campuses of ISB. Hence, three residencies are held at the Mohali Campus, and one residency is held at the Hyderabad Campus. The graduation ceremony is held at the Mohali Campus.

You will receive a certification.

No, you need not take the GMAT test as a prerequisite for the course.

We do not encourage deferrals. In exceptional circumstances deferral may be granted upon submission of documentary proof supporting your reasons for deferral. A non-refundable deferral fee needs to be paid, in addition to the admission fee, to secure your place for the next class. The deferral fee is adjusted in your programme fee when you join the programme. Please note that the programme fee applicable to the year of joining the programme will apply. Deferral is granted for a maximum of one year beyond which you will need to reapply.

In such a scenario you will have to re-apply for the next academic year.

We will strive to process your application as soon as we receive the same and try and revert to you within 30 to 45 days. 

Yes. Interviews allow us to hear about your experiences first-hand and make a qualified judgment. Interviews will be conducted via teleconference or video conference facilities in most cases.

In case a student has to withdraw from the programme for either academic, personal or administrative reasons, the student will receive a pro-rated refund for only the remaining terms to the extent that the student has paid for those terms in advance. No refund will be granted for the terms which have already commenced or have been completed. The programme office reserves the right to deduct additional amounts which have been paid in advance to vendors for boarding and lodging, etc. which cannot be recovered by ISB even though the participant has not attended the terms for which these expenses were incurred in advance.

Yes. The Participating financial institutions are Axis Bank, Bank of Baroda, ICICI, IDFC First, Yes Bank, HDFC Credila and FundRight."

No, the programme does not provide a campus placement service.

Campus placement is not provided for two reasons: 

• AMPI is a part-time executive program
• Since participants will have company support, at least by way of time off from work to attend the programme and therefore respecting the employer’s support, ISB does not feel it is appropriate to offer placement services.
• Secondly, participants would be having a good amount of work experience and would have targeted positions in companies to work which are generally headhunted
