No, work experience is not required for every course abroad.

Many master’s programs - especially in STEM fields - accept students directly after their bachelor’s degree, without work experience. However, some programs, like traditional MBAs, often prefer or require 2 - 5 years of professional experience. Specialized business master’s degrees (such as Master’s in Management) usually accept recent graduates.

Given your BBA in International Business and 7.4 GPA, you are eligible for several master’s programs abroad without work experience. For tailored options, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
