Avg Work Experience required.. for top 10 Bschool..

Hello James1990,

Thank you for your post!

The average applicant to a top business school program is 27-28 years of age and has amassed 4-6 years of full-time work experience since graduating from college. Ideally, you would take on more responsibilities and grow in your role over time. However, this is simply the common range. Generally, you may consider three years of work experience as the minimum so that you have sufficient leadership experience and quantifiable achievements. That said, there are programs that show favor for less work experience, such as HBS and its 2+2 program, which requires only two years of work experience. More than eight years of experience would be better suited to executive or part-time MBA programs, as they generally are looking for slightly more mature candidates.
