Yes, with over four years of work experience, you meet the typical requirement for many UK MBA programs. Most UK universities look for at least three years of professional experience, often preferring candidates with some managerial responsibilities.

You may also be eligible for a GMAT waiver at certain universities, especially if you have a strong academic background and significant work experience. However, GMAT policies vary by institution - some may still require the test.

You will need to meet English language requirements, usually an IELTS score of 6.5 - 7.0 overall (no subtest below 6.0).
