Hi cheese12, there are other places where you can try to build a network of MBA students. I'm sure you will find AGSM students and grads or people applying for 2012. You can try searching through facebook for groups or even for people on linkedin. There is also an MBA news and networking site Business Because where you can read information on AGSM or student profiles.AGSM does have a lot to offer so persevere and you will find people to connect with. Good luck with your application!

I have heard great things about the MBS global programme. That you will be taught by the same professors that teach in all their global centres and the same course content. Exceptional networking opportunities and if you have to travel you can take your classes in any of their global centres in the world. Visit the MBS admissions website, i'm sure they can set you up with people to talk to if you have questions.

MBS has some good scholarships on offer. Of course getting them will be competitive, as is expected but don't let that put you off. Once you've got a good enough GMAT score and have put in good research into seeing what's on offer and plan well in terms of getting essays ready on time, you stand quite a good chance. Have a look at MBS's scholarships page to see what's on offer. They have special scholarship's for women, people from the armed forces, entrepreneurship scholarships and a host of others some that cover up to 100% tuition!

For all the new applicant in one year time, you will be disappointed if you go ahead with the offer.

There's no professionalism in running the institute.
Feedback doesn't matter to management.
Course have outdated content and don't reflect the reality.
Big doubt if they will feature in next year FT rankings.
Career development best advise to student - MBA won't get you the job in Australia. :roll: - So, then what I am doing here.
No domestic student come to AGSM and if they do they leave the course mid-way.
Infrastructure sucks- Ancient Building, Smelly toilets, broken chair and table.
Best business school have non disclosure policy in term of marks. AGSM don't act and behave like top business school.
Lots of manipulation and double talk.

MBAs have no value in Australia. If you want to spend 75000$, then better do it in US, where company value the MBAs and many consulting companies hire in hordes.
