Hi,
I need one final suggestion before I start applying for NUCB japan.
I've inquired and sent my documents for initial screening. Got a reply from NUCB that I meet their requirement and with my experience (7+) they don't need GMAT score as well as no TOEFL score based on my education work profile.

Now, next step is to send my application to NUCB. Before I send my application I need help from you guys who has prior experience/knowledge about Japanese MBA specially for Nagoya.

Kindly help in giving me some insight about the NUCB japan.

I can only speak from working experience. I worked in Japan for 5 years and was probably in the only company that used English as the main working language. Several of my colleagues took a part time MBA in Japan because MBA's are not the normal recruiting path in Japan. Fluent to Business Level Japanese is a basic requirement and understanding of the work culture.

Just a few personal data points -
1) A high % of Japanese in the MBA program i went to and exchanged to were sponsored. (Recruitment of MBA's in Japan is rare)
2) I never met anyone from an MBA program working in Japan who was hired straight out of school (usually transferred there)
3) The 'foreigners' in Japan I worked with who took MBA's inside Japan avoided the local schools and went with McGill, they ended up in finance jobs afterwards, but they already have working knowledge of Japanese culture and very strong Japanese skills as well as many years experience working in Japan.
4) From my 'recruiter' friends who work in Japan, MBA is not highly valued outside of Consulting and Finance and both are mostly domestically focused which means almost fluent level Japanese required.

As MBAs are still very new for Japan, target the best return on Investment. I did Hitotsubashi ICS (where you get exchange to Yale and London business school if you are 2 years student) for a fraction of the price of other MBAs). For personal reasons, I wanted to be based in Japan and this was defintely the best trade-off. You get one year and 3 months visa sponsorship on top and the real education costs (world-class teachers) is much more expensive than the tuition fee costs.
