Learn more about an MBA degree

The MBA is a unique opportunity in regards to what it does for my future. I think it definitely is the key to opening the door to multiple opportunities. I look at it as a springboard to taking me in a different direction; whether it’s in my career, whether it’s in the community. That was what was important to me. I felt like the door was shut, so to speak, before I started graduate school. Every direction I started to go in, I couldn’t continue to go in because of a lack of education, so to speak. And so by opening that door with an MBA program, I’ve completely seen that. You look into the future and there are some opportunities that I see that I can have because of the MBA.

My advice for other international students considering an MBA is really to speak up especially if you’re talking about a U.S. MBA program. This is tough for me as well, we come from a country where we usually don’t speak up in class and almost confront your classmates with your opinions. So that is a big difference coming from India. But I would say that there’s value in that, you learn to speak up in class, you learn to express your options and you learn to just do it.

Learn more about the benefits of graduate business education

When I was applying to Business School, one of the things that I really took into account was that fact that I had a liberal arts background. I was a History and Poli-Sci major undergrad, and during the year that I was researching Business Schools, I took it upon myself to apply for coursework with statistics, accounting, and a calculus class; really to demonstrate to the admissions advisory committee that I was, one, prepared: I knew what the coursework was going to be involved, and that I really wanted to excel at the program that I was applying to. And I really felt that that benefited me because I was able to hit the ground running with the program and with other individuals that had either worked in banking or other fields that, on a day-to-day basis actually had that quantitative and technical ability. I was able to compete with them just as strongly. But I don’t know if I’d been able to do that without having that prior coursework.
