Hi avatar1234,
Thanks for posting. You have a very strong candidacy. My largest recommendation is that you look to differentiate your candidacy in a competitive talent pool. I recommend you read this case study of an Indian engineer who differentiated himself through his leadership experience and was accepted into a top MBA program: https://www.stacyblackman.com/comprehens ... ies/case2/
We also have free school specific advice for some of the programs you are considering:
Columbia: https://www.stacyblackman.com/business-s ... -school-2/
NYU: https://www.stacyblackman.com/business-s ... nyu-stern/
Booth: https://www.stacyblackman.com/business-s ... ago-booth/
If you are interested, we provide free 30 minute phone consultations here: https://www.stacyblackman.com/contact/
Cheers,
Conrad and the Stacy Blackman Team

Hi,
I am working near Manhattan and i am also considering part-time MBA in NYU as compared to full-time MBA. This is considering the fact that i am an international citizen in US and would like to process my green-card simultaneously while working and studying for MBA. Otherwise, i would have to leave my job now and find an employer who is willing to sponsor H1-B work visa after my full-time MBA directly.
Kindly give your opinion about this option.
Thanks in advance.
