The Ministry of Education recently announced that only students applying to ACTT accredited institutions will receive GATE funding for the September 2017 intake of students.

Other indicators of the School’s quality are the recognition of its programmes and performance of its students.
The Lok Jack GSB belongs to an elite group of schools who have volunteered to put themselves through the most rigorous test of quality and have been successful doing so. Putting the students in the spotlight for the world: in January 2017, Shelly Balkissoon, a student of the MBA in International Trade, Logistics and Procurement programme, received high commendation as a finalist of the MBA Student of the Year award at the annual AMBA awards function.
