Hi everyone! As CEIBS Student Ambassadors we would like to share about Mainland China’s Top ranked MBA Program, Full-Time MBA in China Europe International Business School.

CEIBS is relatively young MBA School, started in 1994 as a joint arrangement between Chinese Government and the European Union, however in 2019 it was ranked as 1st in Asia and 4th in the world by Forbes and #5 in the world by Financial Times.

We want to tell you more about what differentiates CEIBS from other Top tier MBA Schools, provide you insights about admissions process & scholarships and share our experience living in Shanghai and China.

Feel free to ask any questions related to CEIBS.

CEIBS Student Ambassadors

how are job opportunities after doing MBA from CEIBS?
Is general management is better than consulting?

Dear Firdaos,

Thank you for your question.

For your information, 80% of admitted students in 2019 scored between 640 and 740.

There is no exact score to be qualified for a fellowship or scholarship at CEIBS. The Admissions Committee will take a holistic review of the applicant's academic record; response to essay questions; work experience; recommendation letters; test scores and the interview performance. However, I would recommend you to aim over 700 to get a stronger chance to be considered for financial assistance.

CEIBS offers wide range of scholarships for both domestic and overseas students. For more information about scholarships, please visit Expenses & Financial Aid on the CEIBS webpage.

Receiving a work permit is relatively easy for foreign professionals in China who get a formal job offer.

We also have a professional Career Development Centre (CDC) which assist CEIBS' students to effectively manage their careers. It provides a broad range of services related to students' career development from the beginning of the programme. These services include career counselling, workshops, mock interviews, Internships and Practicum, organising industry briefing, on-campus company presentations, etc. Furthermore, our CDC is tasked with arranging job fairs to connect students with employers from across the globe.
There are plenty of opportunities to get internship in China. Many of CEIBS students starting their part - time internship in January and getting job offers before graduation.

Dear Amoghzz,

Thank you for your questions!

From provided information we cannot tell whether you will be accepted or not because the admission process is very competitive every year and the Admission Committee will make the decision taking into account many factors such applicant's academic record; response to essay questions; work experience; recommendation letters; test scores and the interview performance. However, we strongly encourage you to apply to CEIBS as many of the current admitted students have similar profile as you have.

According to CEIBS MBA2019 career report 70.5% of the MBA2019 graduates leveraged CEIBS school resources to land their job, 80.1% successfully switched their career post MBA graduation and 26% of all 2019 graduates accepted the job in the General Management.

There are many other opportunities and resources available in CEIBS to help you reach your desired career path.

As far as I know, CEIBS does not have strict rules on converting the undergrad grades to GPA. In your application you may use the GPA or average score stated in your certificate.

Dear ChandrahasM,

Thank you very much for your questions!

Yes, CEIBS accepts GRE & GMAT and offers as an option for applicants its own CEIBS Admission Test. About 80% MBA students' GMAT scores have been within the range of 640-740. To determine whether your score is matching the range you may try to convert your GRE score using this link: https://www.ets.org/gre/institutions/ad ... t06_180820.

Regarding the language barrier, all MBA courses are taught exclusively in English. During your 18-month MBA study, CEIBS will offer free Mandarin courses at 3 different levels: basic, intermediate and advanced.

Positions in the area of domestic marketing, business development, finance, and other domestic client centered jobs often require Mandarin. Nevertheless with many Asia headquarters of MNCs based in Shanghai, as well as Chinese companies that are globalizing, many of CEIBS international students are able to find a position in China without Mandarin proficiency.

It is also possible to find a job in the countries where the students do their exchange program. CEIBS shares job searching platforms with some of their partnering business schools.
