IBA happens to be inside KU and they share the same entrance gate, but only KU cars are allowed inside and IBA students are forced to either walk to iba or use their drop-off car service. This gets dangerous when classes end at night for females students as they can't safely make their way to the main gate from iba campus building. A few females have already dropped out after becoming a victim of harrasment as they leave after the end of their evening class (AND IBA MANAGEMENT IS NOT WILLING TO HELP). They might be known for their good faculty but students' safety shall be their priority. I don't get it why iba cars are not allowed through the shared gate, they have their bloody campus in there!

IBA, Karachi is one of best Institute for business study in Asia and out of the region. Maximum institutions teach how to be a good employee and work for a company under a leader but IBA creates leaders for future leadership in corporate world. Many foreign students who want nothing special only best come here to learn. In IBA top class teachers teach students to play a leader role in corporate world. This university offers scholarship for economical weak students.

Once the best business School of south Asia is now not even the best business School in Pakistan.
Though still possess a lot of potential.
.
For finance, marketing and Media studies I would suggest this school for Karachities.
.
In IBA there should be a Seminar on how this institute turned down from the Best in South Asia to be not even the best business School in Pakistan.

IBA is the oldest business school outside North America. It was established in 1955 with initial technical support provided by the world famous Wharton School of Finance, University of Pennsylvania; later, the University of Southern California set up various facilities at the Institute and several prominent American professors were assigned to the IBA. The course contents, the curriculum, the pedagogical tools and the assessment and testing methods were developed under the guidance of reputed scholars from these two institutions. IBA has zealously guarded the high standards and academic traditions it had inherited from Wharton and USC while adapting and adjusting them with the passage of time.

The application procedure was horribly managed and the management was very unhelpful. I, having been exempted from the entrance test, gave an interview only to receive an email saying my SAT scores weren't good enough. If they weren't good enough then WHY was I exempted from the test and WHY was I shortlisted for an interview? Really slow responses to concerns and queries and ZERO professionalism. I'd give it zero stars if it was possible.
This isn't just some bitter hate review, I was genuinely frustrated during the application and interview process since I live overseas. I get that they have an AMAZING reputation, but at least TRY to deliver to the name!

The Institute of Business Administration (IBA) (Sindhi: ) is an independent university in Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan. Founded in 1955, it is the oldest business school outside North America.

IBA was established as the business school in 1955 in collaboration between Pakistani government and USAID with the technical support from the Wharton School and the University of Southern California. Several prominent American professors were assigned to the IBA to develop curriculum. In 1982, it became the first Pakistani institute to offer a four-year liberal arts undergraduate degree.
It remained a constituent school within the University of Karachi until, in 1994, when its status was elevated to an independent chartered university by the Sindh Government. Since 2003, IBA has expanded from a purely graduate business school to an interdisciplinary university with undergraduate, graduate and post-graduate programs.

IBA, today, is one of Pakistan's selective and highest-ranked institutes particularly known for its business program.
