Hi everybody,

I'm not sure, here is true for this topic. First of all , I must say that english isn't my mother languages and my english isn't good so ıf I do some mistakes , please forgive me.


I graduated from my university last month and my GPA 2.47. I know, ıt's so low. this is first problem.. Second, I can not pay high annual tuition.My question, If I get a good degree (really good degree) in GMAT exam, can I find any scholarship or can I find to accept from a business school. I'm asking that question because I will study maybe 1 year maybe more than 1 year. If I don't find, I don't want to try in vain. I'm really want to go a B-school. If there are some hope, please tell me.

GPA is only part of your application , so don't worry
you can work on GMAT and letter of motivation to achieve your goal
and for tuition you can depend on student loans (low interest rate )
by the way where are you ?
