FMU is a other institute, founded in 1999. This page brings together what is on record for this course at FMU — fees, seats, eligibility, the admission route and placements — so you can judge it before you apply.

Most B.Com programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations, the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.

Here that means corporate finance, financial markets, accounting and investment analysis. Typical first jobs: financial analyst, banking or investment roles. Many graduates also go on to a master's degree.

The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask FMU for the current semester-wise plan.

FMU has not published a fee for B.Com. (Hons.) in Accounting and Finance on our record yet. When you ask, ask for the total across all 3 years — not just the first-year figure — and whether hostel and exam fees are included.

To get into B.Com. (Hons.) in Accounting and Finance, you usually need Class 12, usually with Commerce (many colleges take any stream).

Admission to this kind of course is usually through CUET and merit. Reserved-category candidates generally get a relaxation in the minimum marks. Check FMU's prospectus for the exact cut-off this year.

3. Apply to FMU on its website (fmuniversity.nic.in) or through the enquiry form on this page, and take part in counselling if a state or central body runs it.
4. Once you are offered a seat, verify your documents (marksheets, ID, category certificate if any) and pay the admission fee to confirm it.

Ask yourself — and the college — these questions first:

• Are you genuinely interested in corporate finance? You will spend 3 years on it.
• What will the full course cost, including hostel and living costs?
• Are the placement figures above good enough for your goals? Ask for the branch-wise numbers.
• How does FMU compare with other colleges offering B.Com in and around Orissa - Other?
