Financing an MBA
Resigning from a secure job, moving country, even leaving behind family and friends; potential MBAs seem to take such obstacles in their stride.
But with top MBA programs now costing an average of US$132,600 (including course fees, living expenses, loss of earnings and the like), one question seems to occupy MBA applicants more than any other: just how can you find the money to finance your MBA?
Every year, the QS TopMBA.com Applicant Survey samples almost 4,000 MBA applicants around the world to establish the mindset and aspirations of business school candidates. The latest survey found that out of 15 different selection criteria for business schools, the most important criterion is the availability of MBA scholarships and financial aid.
