Hey there, I’d love to help you out but without more info it’s gonna be hard. Where do you work? What do you do? How quickly have you advanced? Do you have any leadership? What are your great achievements? Do you have notable community service or extra curriculars? Which school did you graduate from? All of these will play important roles in your evaluation.

Hey there!
Sorry for my delay in answering you here. I was around for business. But now I'm back in action!

I think first and foremost that in order to make a good application for PhD programs you should readjust your expectation of getting a full tuition waiver. As you can imagine, given the cost of that for the schools only very few full tuition waivers are given out per school, and usually they go to the candidates with the strongest GMAT, GPA, school, work experience, and with very unique stories. On the other hand, this might be possible in local programs on continental Europe where tuition is free, but for that you will need to speak the language.

Instead I would suggest considering finding a way as many people do to finance your B-school education in another manner.

As far as schools go, there are many out there, and it depends a bit on your field and target country. The top schools will be out of range for you, as you lack the GMAT and school background, but there are many other excellent programs that can get you to your goals.

The place to start looking is schools where the average GMAT of the class is around your average GMAT (up to 40 points lower).

This is the place to start,
Best,
Jon

Hey dude,
It's pretty much the same as above. I don't thin you can expect a tuition waiver from anywhere. There are plenty of schools which you can aim for that are outside the top 10 or so, in Spain, France, Germany, etc. And it's a good idea to think where you want to live too.
Best,
Jon
