Hi Vinay,

This is my profile :

GMAT : 720 (41-Verbal,48-Quant, 5-AWA)
TOEFL : 283
GPA : IHM, New Delhi (65%), MA-Public Administration(53.2%). I was amongst the top 10% of my class however your GPA conversion would be as good as mine
Work Ex: 6+ years ( including 4+ years of leadership exp. by Sep'05) in BPO operations and International sales

I have spoken to 2 MBS Alums over the email however my queries where limited to funding options which is an important issue in my case with developing world earnings and savings 😃 I had applied to MBS after a lot of due diligence but didn't have an opportunity to meet MBS representatives.

I would really appreciate if you could share with us what you hear at the Information session.

Cordially,

Vipin Singh

Hey guys, I knew of a friend who had secured an admisison to MBS but did not go there. The reason being...

First, it is said that an Australian MBA is of no value either in India or in the US. An australian degree not bein internaitonally recognized is cent precent true(coz engineering degree is not recognized anywhere..!!)

Secondly, they say that the viza that is given to you is valid till the date u finish ur studies. meaning that u have to come back to India and then aopply for a job from here(and not there..!!). After gettting a job, only then, u can go back to Australia..!!:wow:

I am not trying to bog u people down, but just that keep thiese things in mind before u go there.. Ask around and make sure that u have a way out of this...!!

In any case, All the best to you all..! 😃

This is interesting grapevine. I am certainly interested in getting more such information as I thought my due diligence was thorough before applying to MBS but I guess, We tend to discover our ignorance only when we seek out more knowledge. Any more such comments would be very helpful for people like me who are also considering an Australian MBA apart from others.

I have a friend who finished his MS from RMIT,Melbourne so I am also hoping to get his take on the observations.

Also, the MBS website says that UK recognizes MBS MBA as one of the top 50 MBAs worldwide and graduates from MBS are considered eligible for the HSMP visa in UK.

Lets see what comes out of the information session 😃 cheers, Vipin
