Once it is finalized, the same cut-off is used for the entire admissions process of the respective year.” So cut off was neither increased nor reduced through out the process

- Final Merit List and Admission Offer by IIMs: The merit list for final admission 2022 will be released individually by each of the 9 CAP participating IIMs. However, CAP participating Baby IIMs like IIM Jammu, Sirmaur, Sambalpur, Bodhgaya ask for confirmation of interest before making final admission offer but they will also release the first admission offers without waiting for this confirmation which can be submitted by a stipulated date.

17. CAP 2022 Centers
CAP 2022 centres are five at New Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai and Kolkata. However, since CAP 2022 was conducted online, candidates could attend the PI round from their home on the designated date which was communicated by the CAP coordinating IIM to the short-listed candidates.
18. CAP 2022 Rules: New IIM Admission Process
Common Admission Process (CAP) 2022 Rules for admission to MBA/PGDM 2022-24 are:
- Individual IIMs will prepare a shortlist based on their shortlisting criteria. These shortlists will be combined for further processing by the coordinating IIM. The shortlisting criteria for all the IIMs participating in the CAP 2022 process are the same.
- From the combined list, Candidates will be called for the New IIMs Common Admission Process comprising Common Personal Interview & Written Analysis Test (PI & WAT).
- Request for change of CAP centre 2022 should reach the admission cell/e-mail ID of CAP coordinating IIM on or before the last date which may fall in the last week of January/first week of February, 2022. These requests will be accommodated solely at the discretion of CAP conducting IIM and would be communicated to candidates.
- Each IIM will take the PI score of the candidates shortlisted by them and combine it with other scores-CAT 2022 Score, Profile score and any other score to make their own individual merit list to make final admission offers to the candidates.
- Only PI will be conducted commonly for the new IIMs.
- The final merit list of candidates will be arrived by each IIM according to its own selection criteria.
- These criteria will be available on the websites of the respective institutes.
- Candidates may also be informed that attending the CAP 2022 process is compulsory for all the shortlisted candidates.
19. How to know when to participate in CAP 2022?
The shortlisted candidates can check their CAP 2022 dates on website of respective IIMs and will also be informed on their registered mail. The candidates who are not shortlisted by the 9 new IIMs will not be sent further communication.
20. Coordination process between New and old IIMs
Students shortlisted for some older IIMs might not have to appear for the CAP, as some of the older IIMs will share their Personal Assessment (PA) scores with CAP Coordinating IIM. Those candidates who have been called by more than 1 older IIM will have their scores averaged across the IIMs where they have been interviewed. Finally, the scores of PA Process will be shared with the other IIMs participating in CAP, who will then make their own merit lists according to the normalized scores.
21. New IIMs CAP 2022: Step by Step Process
Step 1: Shortlist by Individual IIMs
Each of the new IIMs will shortlist the candidates for CAP 2022 independent of each other. Candidates are shortlisted at the 1st stage around 10 to 12 times of the intake for MBA admission 2022 by each IIM. It may create the multiplicity of calls for the same candidate if he/she meets the shortlisting criteria of many IIMs.
Step 2: Each IIM sends shortlist to CAP 2022 Coordinator IIM
Each CAP participating IIM forwards its list of shortlisted candidates to the CAP 2022 coordinating IIM.
Step-3: CAP Conducting IIM to create Final List of Shortlisted Candidates for CAP 2022 Calls
CAP coordinating IIM Trichy will combine the list of all participating IIMs and prepare a final list of candidates for CAP 2022 Calls. The IIM will then send out calls to these candidates. More than 20,000 candidates are to get New IIMs CAP 2022 Calls.
Step 4: Candidates to participate in PI Process
CAP 2022 Personal Assessment (PA) round will only have Personal Interview (PI) as Written Abilities Test (WAT) will not be conducted. Also there will be no Group Discussion. A candidate will be asked to appear in CAP through Online mode instead of at one of the 5 CAP Centers New Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai and Kolkata.
Step 5: CAP 2022 Scores to be sent by Coordinating IIM to participating IIMs
Based on the performance of the candidates in the PI round, CAP coordinating IIM will prepare the scores for the CAP Round. This will be sent to all the participating IIMs after CAP round is over.
Step 6: All IIMs to prepare their own Final Admission List
Each participating IIM has its own admission policy. They will provide weightages to CAT scores, CAP scores, and in some cases Applicants Profile, for making final admission offers. It is very much possible that one of the new IIMs may not send you final admission offer while others offer you admission based on your CAT 2021 scores and other parameters.
