    Hi

    I've checked many BS which I'm planing to apply, but I found out most of them have a deadline in abril, but my college finish in the end of may like most of european colleges, so, is it allowed to apply before you finish your current study (last year) ?

    Tks

        Hi there,

        my previous comment (cf. above) also holds for US schools. Why don't you read my MIM eBook and apply what you learn to US schools? In the book you find the key criteria to identify good schools - then you use the MIM Compass search engine and analyze those US schools that you find in the search results.

        It's not difficult. You start with fundamental quality criteria (cf. eBook) and take schools off your short list that don't fulfill these criteria. For the remaining schools, you use a more finegrained approach (as outlined in the book).

        Best

      Hi there,

      yes, that's accepted by many schools. By the way, there are also many schools who have a deadline later - or who don't have an official deadline but prefer a rolling admissions process until the classes are full Check our deadlines section, for instance.

      Best regards,

          Hi there,

          if you ask me about general indicators of quality, of course, you should check, for instance, whether a school - such as the IESEG - is a serious school (e.g., how long does it exist? how many alumni does it have? how established is itin a country?).

          Next, you should check to what extent it follows international management education standards, as expressed, for instance, by an international accreditation. You can also analyze the ranking position(s) and position changes as well as subrankings.

          Most often, however, students who ask me questions like you want to know if their investment is worth it. For this, you have to analyze deeper, particularly the career outcomes, and match this with your own career goals. It doesn't make sense, for instance, if you want to work for a specific consulting firm and if this firm has never heard of your school.

          Now analyzing a school or program is the student's job. I don't do it and I don't provide "my impression". Instead, I provide help to effectivley assess the value that a specific school or program could have for a student. Please read my MIM eBook "How you find the best master in management" for that. It will cost you a few dollars and some hours of reading - plus some days of thinking - but it will influence your view on masters in international business and help you find the right program (or confirm if IESEG is the right one for you).

          Best regards,
          Thomas
