Why did they tell me that I can enroll in an MBA with cyber security option without work experience?

Yes, you can enroll in an MBA with a cybersecurity focus without prior work experience. Many universities offer MBA programs in cybersecurity that are designed for students who do not have professional experience in the field.

These programs combine business management skills with cybersecurity knowledge, allowing fresh graduates or those changing fields to enter the program directly. This makes it accessible if you want to build expertise in cybersecurity and leadership without needing a work background first.
