While generally it\u2019s harder to get accepted with less than three years of work experience, if you can attend with 3-5 years of work experience as opposed to 5+ years of work experience, you\u2019ll see higher ROI.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u2022 For international applicants, specifically those <a href=\"https:\/\/reports.accepted.com\/against_the_odds_indian_mba_applicants\">coming from India<\/a>, the average increase in salary was an eye-popping three times their pre-MBA salary. I suspect that result stems from the fact that many came international MBA students from countries, like India, with lower salary scales. Many MBA grads are after their degree work in countries, like the U.S., with higher salaries. Nonetheless, it\u2019s a phenomenal figure.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">\u2022 Those going into consulting and technology saw the greatest increase in salary among different industries. I suspect that there is overlap between the international and industry figures. In other words, a lot of Indians going to MBA programs want to go into technology or consulting.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/reports.accepted.com\/mba\/how-to-pay-for-an-mba-webinar?utm_campaign=gmatclub&amp;utm_medium=Paymbawebinar&amp;utm_source=blogcta\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-32250 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.accepted.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/How-to-pay-for-mba-cta.png\" alt=\"How to Pay for your MBA!
