Hi,
Can I go for PGDM at Great lakes with 2.5years of work experience?

Posted from my mobile device

The PGDM at Great Lakes is for those with less than 2 years of work experience or no experience at all. Since you've already have more than 2 years of experience, you are eligible only for the PGPM, in full-time programs, which will save one year of your time without compromising on the learning experience and curriculum.

Hello,
Does work experience before graduation counts? I have 4 years of pre-graduation work experience as web developer. Also, is distance education degree accepted in Great Lakes?
