Three verified reviews from Shoolini University Online MBA Banking and Insurance alumni. Ratings reflect individual experience.
I enrolled at Shoolini while preparing for IBPS PO simultaneously. The Adda247 bundle made that dual-track approach viable without buying separate exam prep material. Credit analysis and NPA classification subjects were directly applicable to my banking officer role. PAP structure gave me confidence to take time off from a stressful job while studying. NAAC A+ from NIRF #69 University 2025 Shoolini cleared the management degree requirement for my bank's internal Scale II promotion.
Liked: Adda247 IBPS preparation helped me crack IBPS PO while doing the MBA simultaneously
Disliked: Credit appraisal content could include more SME lending case studies specific to Punjab industry clusters
I work at an LIC branch in Shimla and needed an MBA credential for the branch manager promotion track. The Insurance product design and bancassurance subjects covered needs assessment, cross-selling frameworks, and IRDAI compliance requirements that I work with daily. KPMG certification added a corporate credibility layer to my profile. Zero-cost EMI through Shoolini made the Rs 1,30,000 opt-out fee manageable on a government sector salary.
Liked: Bancassurance and insurance product design subjects were directly useful for my LIC branch work
Disliked: More IRDAI regulatory content on newer insurance product categories like ULIPs and term insurance structures would be useful
I'm an NBFC credit analyst and the credit appraisal and risk management subjects covered CRAR, NPA classification, and SARFAESI recovery - exactly what I work on. The MBA credential is required for my NBFC's compliance officer role. PAP option was available but I opted for the Rs 1,30,000 track since placement wasn't a concern. Statistics for Management helped me build basic default probability models. Good BFSI credential at an affordable price.
Liked: RBI regulatory compliance content covered prudential norms and KYC requirements practically
Disliked: Fintech and digital banking content was limited compared to what BFSI candidates need in 2024
