It was 6:00 PM on 21st March. I received a mail in my Inbox with the subject “UCL Summer study tour- FINAL LIST”. My heart missed a beat – will I get selected?

I can guarantee that all the other 9 must have been feeling the same.

June 2016, Kolkata. As I was going through the contents of an e-mail that I had just received, notifying me of my final selection at IIM Sirmaur, I knew my life was about to take a turn. A turn for the better, hopefully. It’s been two months since I have joined the Post Graduate Programme at IIM Sirmaur, and all the skepticism about joining a “baby IIM” has already vanished into thin air. Opportunities galore. If you ask me to capture in words the most striking element of being a part of a new institute I’ll say it is the plethora of opportunities that one here has access to. You initiate things, see them grow and take pride in their existence. Be it a cultural event or a literary competition, a marketing club activity or something that the finance club does – the world of opportunity here only gets bigger by the day. When something you create assumes grand proportions, the joy and the sense of ownership it brings along is unparalleled. After all, you don’t follow a trend. YOU SET IT!
