Question .................I have an above average profile for MBA from top 20 business school but I don’t have finances to support my studies I can accept a top 30 mba but a full scholarship is a must. What should I do, what kind of funding opportunities are available? I am expecting a 320 in GRE. Please guide.

ARINGO · Answer

Without a lot of context, I would say that you should look into Owen, Rice, Notre Dame, and Olin... further down the list is Warrington, which has traditionally been a full ride for all students

Yes - anyone applying in Round 1?

Sajjad1994 · Answer

Queation...... is 32 years of age too much for an MBA? an accountant with an exp. of 5 years

employeee123 · Answer

There area executive programmes that require minimum 5 years of work experience. The average age of the batch is around 31 years. It is not late Sir.

ARINGO · Answer

Interesting profile - it can go 1 of two ways - I do think that schools will count your years during the article ship as work experience, if that is the reason for only 5 years of experience by age 32.

MBA programs are typically accepting candidates by years of work experience, not age. However, some schools higher up like M7/T10 are a bit more stringent in wanting to keep their average age 25-27.

So you can apply to traditional 2 year programs, but you may have better luck applying to senior MBA programs, like the Foster Global EMBA, USC IBEAR... maybe Stanford MSx .... or the 1 year programs at Kellogg, CBS, Emory..

I have a question to ARINGO
What is the process for getting admitted into XLRI for PGDM GM programme? I can not find the detailed steps for it. Also, what is the conversion rate of XLRI for the program mentioned above?

Sajjad1994 · Answer

Question ..... Is it good to report dual jobs to adcoms? one online fully remote other onsite in a governmental sector?

ARINGO · Answer

We don’t work with these programs, as we typically focus on US/EU/UK programs, so I cannot answer these questions. Maybe find a recent grad to chat with.

Sajjad1994 · Answer

Everyone! Last 10 minutes are remaining in this chat session, ask your question quickly.

ARINGO · Answer

Yes! This isn’t an application for a job, so there is no worry that you may be "moonlighting" for another company. It is great to show you can balance both jobs and excel (hopefully that is the case) and maybe have experience in a different sector or function.

Sajjad1994 · Answer

Question ...... What is the minimum time span for a job to be reported for admission purpse. without having any negative impact on admission.

ARINGO · Answer

This can be a case-by-case situation, but generally any work gap over 3 months should be shared. So if the work was less than 3 months, then maybe you can share something else you were doing during this time.

Sajjad1994 · Answer

Thank you. This is great.

Thank you ARINGO for joining us today, this was a very informative session. See you next time.
