Hi  Narenn ,

I am considering applying to St. Gallen MBA, but I am very skeptical on the program after the reviews that I've read online. I basically wanted some clarity on two questions:
1. What is your take on the program? Is there are good source that I can refer to understand details like strengths, weaknesses, ROI etc.?
2. How big a barrier is a language for post MBA job prospect in Switzerland? I am non-native with no proficiency in French or German

Any insights on these questions would really help.

thanks!

Narenn · Answer

This is something a current student or one who knows the program can answer in a better way. Try to get in touch with current students/alums.

It shouldn't be a big issue from admissions perspective as the program is taught in English but proficiency in French/German could play a decisive role in post-MBA employment.

Hello Aspirants, 
I passed out last year from the University of St. Gallen. I was a full-time student, I understand there are many questions regarding the prospect of work after passing out from SG, specifically for non-EU passport holders. I am more than happy to help you guys with the questions you have in your mind. Post it and I will try my best to answer your questions.

Hi all,

I do not understand one thing: To join the class of 2021, What is the latest date to apply? 
I know that in the website is stated, but is not clear to me if the latest date is Jul 2021 or Jul 2020.

Thanks in advance and good luck to everybody !

yashikaaggarwal · Answer

To join class of 2021 you had to apply in the year 2020.
I had this misconception too. 
Applications start in September around. 
The early you apply, the better chances you have for admission.
Given St. Gallen is highly picky. You should apply within R2 or R3.
You can apply in later rounds. But admission chances get slimer with every passing round.
I don't think admissions are open for 2021 batch right now. Given its June.
So I will say apply in R1 in Sept-Oct. 
And join the cohort for fall 22.
