Please advise which schools for low Gmat [#permalink] New post   28 Dec 2019, 02:20
Hi,

I'm planning to apply for MSc of Finance at Uppsala, Stockholm, or Umea Univeristy at Sweden.

My GPA is 2.89/4 (7.54/10), my Gmat is 560.

Do I have any chances to get a scholarship at these universities? Which university should I apply for? Please advise me.

Thank you.

Hi @thucanh1105",
The GPA is decent, GMAT is a bit on the lower end. However, the chances for MSc Finance depend upon a host of other factors like work ex, certifications, and extra-curriculars.
Same goes for scholarships - would depend upon your profile and the type of scholarship that you are aiming for (Merit Based, Need based, minority,etc).
So if you can help me out with your profile details, I would be happy to help you out with a detailed analysis. Would suggest you to take our free profile evaluation for MFin schools here: https://www.mim-essay.com/profile-evaluation?gmat-pe

You have a pretty weak profile. GPA is low. GMAT is horrible. I would apply to both schools. Honestly, I would think long and hard about grad school at this point and evaluate why you struggled in undergrad and your GMAT. What is grad school going to do for your career wise? Typically a higher GMAT will offset a lower GPA, but in this case it is reinforcing it. Not good.

so, could I understand that I have no chances to apply for master programs? Though I lower my target schools that rank around 600th...

Hi!

Although your GMAT is quite low, I do think that you have a decent shot at getting into either Uppsala, Umeå or Stockholm since some of the GMAT quotes wasn't filled for applications this fall (HT20).

God Luck!
