Is work experience mandatory for MBA programs abroad for a MIM?

It depends. Many MBA programs abroad prefer candidates with 2 - 5 years of work experience, as it adds value to classroom discussions and peer learning.

However, some programs - especially Master in Management (MiM) or select MBA tracks - accept applicants with little or no experience.

Check each program’s specific requirements, as policies vary by university and country. If you need help identifying programs that fit your profile, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
