The Management Aptitude Test (MAT) 2026, organized by the All India Management Association, is now accepting applications for its national-level entrance exam. Candidates seeking admission to MBA, PGDM, or PGCM programs at over 600 business schools across India can apply. MAT is held four times a year—in February, May, September, and December—and offers three modes: Paper-Based Test (PBT), Computer-Based Test (CBT), and Internet-Based Test (IBT). This flexible schedule allows applicants to choose their preferred exam format and timing. Each participating B-school determines its own cutoff scores and counseling process. Notable institutions accepting MAT scores include Christ University Bangalore, KIIT Bhubaneswar, BIMTECH, Amity Business School, and SIES College of Management.
