Yes, you can pursue an MBA abroad without prior work experience, especially in countries like the USA and Australia. Several universities offer MBA programs tailored for recent graduates or those with limited professional experience.

- USA: Many top institutions accept applicants without full-time work experience, focusing on strong academics, leadership potential, and test scores.
- Australia: Some universities consider fresh graduates for MBA programs, especially if you have a solid academic record and relevant internships.

Keep in mind: while possible, some programs may prefer candidates with work experience. Strong academics, a competitive GMAT/GRE, and leadership activities will strengthen your application. If you need guidance on suitable programs, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
