Do top universities like LBS and HEC require managerial experience for MBA admissions?

Yes, top business schools like London Business School (LBS) and HEC Paris generally require applicants to have professional work experience for their MBA programs, but they do not specifically require managerial experience.

They typically expect at least two years of full-time work experience. Demonstrating leadership potential and career progression is important, but formal managerial roles are not mandatory.

Your 30 months of work experience will be a strong asset. If you need help presenting your experience or strengthening your profile, your Leap counsellor can guide you.
