春季入学的MBA会容易进一些么？

ballackahn

各位大牛，看到有不少春季入学的项目，除了没有实习以外，还有什么不同呢？会更容易进麽？

有哪些春季入学的学校呢

春季能入学的MBA巨少吧，或者说好学校里几乎没...

好像CBS有spring，其他不记得了。
修课没什么差别，反正那些课都是循环开放的。

哥伦比亚有春季入学。只是中间没有时间做intern，同班同学应该都是年龄比较大，出来有固定公司sponsor的人才去

Hey there—Im not sure which programs you are talking about.  But for older applicants especially, the programs based in Europe (which do tend to begin in the Spring) are somewhat easier to get into.  Columbia’s J-term, however, isn’t easier to get into.  In fact, the people they are looking for there are even more targeted and specific than in their normal program.  So again I don’t know if this is helpful—give me some specific schools, and I can give you some more specific answers, and help.  Good luck my friend!

Could you elaborate more on Columbia's J term? I am actually applying to it. There is very little information on their website, only saying that it's the same program with no internship. Do you know the J term's approximate size, focus, and why is it called a J term?

Thanks

Hey there—the CBS J-term is similar to the real program but a bit different.  That is, since there is no internship it is even more critical that anyone considering a career change NOT consider the J-term.  If you indicate that you are looking to go into a different profession post-MBA, you will have a great deal of trouble getting into school.  Why is this important? Well, it means that the J-term is for a very specific type of candidate.  Someone who is already doing what they want to do, they know all about their future, etc.

J-term stands for January term.  The people that it’s really the most suited for are people who already have significant contacts in their field or who are going back to a family business and don’t need to develop a new area of expertise or forge a network from scratch.  Other candidates who might want to consider the January MBA program include entrepreneurs, those who plan to return to their current employer and those who are sponsored by their company.  SO if you fit the profile, it will be easier to get into CBS through this program.  But if you don’t, it will be harder.  Hope this helps!
