Doing an MBA is a big decision. Hence it is essential for a student to define his or her expectations from an MBA degree in order to have a clear idea of the path he/she wants to take. Every individual has a different reason for pursing an MBA degree. Some want to pursue it to further their career growth in their current organization while others to obtain business knowledge to fulfil their entrepreneurial dreams. There is an MBA program for every distinct candidate- and we help you find the perfect fit. In the initial sessions with our counsellors, we try to understand the candidate’s requirements from an MBA program and accordingly advise the ideal path (GMAT/GRE, country, program duration, pathway, full-time/part-time, EMBA, etc.)
MBA College Selection and Application
Once we understand the candidate’s requirements and educational background, our research team works to generate an accurate preliminary list of colleges that fit his/her profile. The preliminary list is generated taking into account several factors such as specific program/country requirements, time and financial considerations, program entry requirements, acceptance statistics, future opportunities and the value of the program.
Then in the next stage, our counsellors work with the candidate to trim down the preliminary list of colleges to obtain the final college selections. Here, we encourage the candidates to do some individual research so that they have a better idea of the colleges and programs. Post obtaining the final list, we begin the application process. Different colleges have different deadlines and application requirements – it is essential that everything is completed in an orderly and timely manner so as to avoid missing deadlines. Our counsellors and research teams create a work-chart in order to complete all the college applications comfortably within the deadline dates.
