Why should I choose IIMK over IIMI?

My brother was confused about the same. He later decided to go for IIM Kozhikode. Some reasons that helped him take this decision are

• Smaller Batch-size: IIM Kozhikode has a smaller batch size (475 students) in comparison to IIM Indore (572 students). The reason for it being the IPM program merging with the PGP Program. The placements are affected and the larger the batch size the fewer opportunities you will get.

• Lower fees: The fees of IIM Kozhikode are a bit lower ( INR 20,50,000) than IIM Indore (INR 21,14,222). So with almost the same curriculum and opportunities a lower fee is better.

• Location: Kerala is God's own country. You will not regret stepping into the serene campus of IIM Kozhikode. Moreover, you can explore Southern India which is filled with natural beauty.

• New culture: The culture of South India is very different from that of Central and Northern India. So you get to learn new things and traditions.

Apart from these differences, both IIM Kozhikode and IIM Indore are similar with respect to their status, faculty experience, Alumni network, equality and diversity of students, and foreign exchange opportunities.
