Recommendations for MBA schools [#permalink] New post   05 Dec 2019, 22:32
Good day everyone!

I am aspiring to apply to MBA schools that are very likely to accept candidates who meet all the entry requirements, but have no or limited work experience. I am a BBA (Bachelor of Business Administration) graduate and it's been a month since I have started a full-time job at a firm. I do have around 8 months of corporate internship experience during my time at undergrad school.

I am planning to begin sending my applications as soon as I get around a year of full-time employment experience. I believe that my academic record is sound enough to offset my 'less than average' work experience that most business schools usually look out for.

I'd really appreciate if I can get suggestions as to which MBA schools could be the best bet for me. I am inclined towards applying to business schools in US, Canada, UK and Australia, ranked at least among top 200 across the world.

Looking forward to your opinions. Thanks.

Are you looking for MIM or MBA?
MBA is tough with 1 year. That said, if you have excellent extra-curriculars you'll still have a shot(very small one)

Hi, you can take a look at DeGroote's Young MBA program. It's called the Co-op program: https://mbarecruit.degroote.mcmaster.ca ... p-program/
Hope you'll find the suitable one.

Thank you for the response. If possible, can you please specify the colleges where I could stand a chance?

Hi, thanks for the revert. DeGroote is definitely on my watchlist. Do you know of any other top universities with MBA programs of similar nature?

More and more top schools now have Early Career MBA programs (slots reserved for those with <2 years of experience). It's still difficult but much easier than before when most schools would not even consider these applicants.

Totally agreed. It's way easier nowadays than before to earn admissions to many schools.
