Thank you for your detailed response, i truly appreciate it... Oh and i am definitely in this world .. lol

Is it okay if i send you a PM. Thank you

Alright, feel free to send.

Some caveat: I'm not an admissions consultant and don't have an MBA myself and don't plan to get one.

To the best of my knowledge wpi requires toefl from Nigerian students. But he/she can try Clarkson University, the school has everything he/she requested for but the deadline is January 31 and its in New York.

Is best of your knowledge the school's knowledge or verdict?

Or does WPI discriminate among Nigerian students? I gave WPI as a place to apply because non TOEFL people just successfully applied or got admitted few days or weeks ago with TOEFL.

Hello everyone,

I am a bit new on this thread but i have been reading and will appreciate it if i can get the help i need. A little back story:

I am 34 years old, i have an MSc in Business from a UK university (2011) and a Bachelors from a University in Nigeria. I am married with 3 kids( 2 of which are US citizens) and i am currently working for a DFI here in Lagos and i have a thriving business by the side.
I intend to pursue my plans for an MBA and hopefully would love to go with my whole family by Gods grace or at least eventually take them with me. Now to my Questions:
1. Can i get recommendations for schools that offer MBA programmes preferably with scholarship options
2. What are my chances and what steps do i need to take( I have most of the required documents i think my concern is when it comes to the visa application
3. Is it possible to get the F1 visa and also secure the F2 for my spouse and 1 child ( since the remaining 2 of them are citizens they dont need)

I apologise to anyone in advance please dont be offended sometimes we just need someone to guide us.. thank you

I'm surprised you asked these questions. MBA is a well know threaded path.

That said, yes, you can get scholarshipS. Actually former a colleague got 3 scholarships - HBS, GSB and Sloan. But chose GSB. These schools, or even lower ranked ones, they like a) black woman and b) top GMAT scores. If you have two of these, you will go really far. If b) is not bad but you have a), then you will make some progress.

So, to answer your specific questions

1. All serious MBA programs give scholarships. Many even provide avenues to get loans. I had to ask twice when I visited HBS to be sure that they're indeed willing to provide avenues for loans to students they admit who may not be able to pay all the fees themselves or whose scholarships do not cover all fees

2. You need to take the GMAT. For some reason, some (most?) of us find this test challenging. But if you tear it, and you be black woman, top schools go pursue you enter your house . If you don't get top scores, but your scores are decent, some type of partial scholarship is still possible. I know Omhengwo who went to Wharton with 50% and paid the rest 50% from life savings. lol. The short girl no gree borrow.

3. Yes, F2 visa is possible. I know many people whose immediate families have F2. Not a biggie, really.

Your questions are easy. Lol. Are you in this world?
