Study Abroad

Academic requirements for MBA:
The first and foremost eligibility requirement to apply abroad for an MBA is to have completed a basic Bachelor's level graduation degree. This could be an engineering degree B.E. / B.Tech B.Sc. B.Com B.A. or in any other discipline. A Master's or doctoral Ph.D. degree is also fine. A full-time degree from a reputed university is preferred. However, some MBA colleges may also accept correspondence and distance education. The primary evidence that you will submit to prove your credentials are your academic transcripts. These include semester-wise marks for each subject that was covered in your degree. You may also be required to appear for an international exam like the GMAT or GRE which is crucial for admission to top B-Schools abroad, and language proficiency tests like the IELTS or TOEFL, if required. Work experience requirements
Unlike a 2-year MBA in India, MBA colleges abroad expect students to have had substantial exposure to the working world. In fact, they expect not only technical skills (that are easier to gain in junior roles) but also managerial skills (like team leading, planning, coordination). This allows the graduates of foreign MBA colleges to get mid and senior management level jobs that pay high salaries. Regards.

Hi Shruti, Korean medical schools are known to be extremely tough to get into and are very rigorous. In order to begin your admission quest please visit some reputed university websites in addition to SNU and understand their admission requirements, intakes, fees, the language of instruction and so on. I will advise you to keep options open and apply to more than one university. In case of SNU, the online application process generally starts in January to Feb and the course will most likely commence from September. International applicants must give additional entrance test.

MBA from foreign universities opens up a window of opportunities and an excellent career with private and public enterprises in diverse fields. Studying in an international business school is the key for a bright future. However, studying in India has its own advantages. Foremost, is the cost factor. Foreign universities are expensive as compared to Indian universities. You need to list down your objectives regarding your career plan, budget, country where you want to stay, etc. , and prioritize them. Once you do that, deciding whether you should do an MBA in USA (abroad) or India will be an easier task. There is a difference between the quality of education in premier institutes of India and reputed international institutes, but at the same time, it is costlier and more difficult to get into. Thus, you should weigh the pros and cons based on these factors to make an informed decision. Regards.
