Done preparing for the TANCET exam? Good job; now you need to make a list of your preferred colleges and put it down on paper so that whenever the real cutoff list comes out, you can check out which college you are getting into.

So, if you are a bit confused about which college you need to put on your list, here is a blog featuring all that.

Further Process After TANCET 2026 Scores

Once you are done with the exam, you need to make a preference list of colleges and start applying one by one. The application steps are mentioned below:

  1. Keep an eye on the DTE website for the official rank list of the candidates.
  2. Enter your preferred college in descending order, like the top-rated at first and then the rest.
  3. Once you are done with this, respected colleges will contact you for the counselling round based on your rank, category, and the list.
  4. Last, report to the respective college with relevant physical documents and confirm your admission.

Key Points to Consider For TANCET MBA Selection

Another important factor that students need to consider is that some top-rated colleges arrange a group discussion between the selected students to finalize the list. It is similar to an interview; they will test you for your soft skills and confidence here.

For some colleges, the TANCET score might be more than enough to select a candidate, but there are a few top-rated colleges that highly consider Group Discussions (GD) and Personal Interviews (PI).

Alternative Option – Online MBA Course

Every student who is appearing for any exam goes through the overthinking stage, so put a halt to your overthinking and anxiety. There is another way to pursue your MBA course via the online mode and get the same number of benefits and exposure as the traditional degree program.

Just in case even the TANCET 2026 exam score goes down the hill for you, you will still have a solid option of your online degree as a backup. Another factor of the online MBA program is that you will receive the same quality of education and the same networking opportunities.

What are the benefits of the online MBA course?

  • Online MBA courses can help working individuals with a lot of flexibility by offering them a way to advance in their careers while not disrupting the ‘normal’ work-life routines. 
  • Generally, these courses are approximately two years long and provide students with a broad range of knowledge about key components of the business world, including finance, marketing, strategy, and leadership.
  • Course content is continually updated to be consistent with the current trends and practices of industry and business, using the Learning Management System (LMS) to deliver the course.
  • Online MBA programs enable students to find the right balance between their work and their personal lives and allow students to apply the knowledge they gain during their online MBA studies in their current jobs every day.
