Hi Admissions Experts

As a candidate from a highly representative pool(India engineer), does selecting a particular short-term goal result in a direct rejection? This is excluding any other factors like profile, GMAT, or negative aspect of the candidate.

Example - A CPG Brand Management candidate has almost no chance of getting H1B sponsorship(as per GMATCLUB articles).Hence colleges would not admit a student since it might have an impact on the College employment statistics

Thank you

Hi RRJ12

Sorry for the delayed response but hope this finds you in time still.

Business schools would want to see any student as their success story and it will always be difficult for international students to find jobs in brand management. Thus, the goals you go ahead with it should be feasible; at the same time, though, they should sync with your overall story.

In short, yes, you may face rejection if the school feels that you may not find a suitable employer.

All the best!
