Hi all,
I am 23 and I am from India. I was planning for an MBA and I needed a little guidance + evaluation. Here is my profile below:
Age- 23
Nationality- Indian
Work Ex- 30 Months till April'22 with a fast-growing e-commerce firm
Domain- Marketing (Senior Marketing Exec)
GMAT- 710
Background- A marketing + business graduate from a Grade A university with 74.7%.
Profile- Very much into marketing and creative endeavors. Have interned with many global agencies, and worked with multiple NGOs on communication & branding-related projects. Have worked on many personal campaigns aimed towards the upliftment of marginalized communities. Have a knack for designing. Was the VP of student marketing club and had another position in the economics club. During college, I won many events and business conclaves- both national and regional levels.
I am going to start working on a few more such projects along with my job since I can take out some time.
I really want to go for an MBA in Canada. By the time I go, I'll have roughly 4 years of work ex and I feel it'd be a good time. What I need help with is profile evaluation and what are some schools that I can realistically target/think of targeting.
Lastly, I am really focused on scholarships. An MBA is a big investment for me and without a scholarship, I am not sure if I will be able to go for one. Also, if there is something I can do to improve me chances of getting into a good program, I am open to that.
Thanks a ton!

Hi RealDojaCat,
I'm a little murky on your timing, so hopefully I am getting the situation here...you have 2.5 years now with a fast-growing e-commerce firm and you are applying in R1 to start in 2023 fall? So 3 years at application time and 4 years at matriculation?
Honestly, your information is pretty limited here, so it's really hard to say, but I'd suggest that you look for target schools where you perform above the average since you are in a competitive cohort (higher GMAT, commonly, or higher academic achievement perhaps), especially if you are looking for scholarship money. Your experience strikes me as rather low for these programs, so you may benefit from waiting to apply another year or two -- but it is less about time served than your leadership and impact in your role. I'd focus more on what you've achieved in your full time current role than internships or student efforts of the past-- those are nice, but emphasizing them might make you seem young, and you are probably below the experience average already. Maybe you can highlight how you have helped your company grow so fast with your marketing acumen!
I am afraid I don't know the breakdown of generosity in Canadian MBA programs - I'd reach out directly to the programs to find out what support is available. Combine that information with schools with class profiles where you are a good jump above their averages, and you will improve your chances! Good luck!
Warmly,
