Graphic designer considering an MBA

by rvc27 » Sat Oct 12, 2013 7:07 pm
Hi

I'm am a 25yrs old female from India. I have a BA Hons degree in Graphic Communication from Loughborough University, UK and have been working as a graphic designer for two years now in Singapore. I plan to take my GMAT early next year and apply for the 2015 intake. I want to get an MBA as I want to move to more strategic roles within the creative industry and am interested in entrepreneurship in the long run.

I was wondering,

1. Would my background affect my chances in either a positive or negative way?

2. Are there any specific aspects of my application I'll need to highlight more?

3. Which of the top B-schools are most conducive for students from non-traditional backgrounds (non STEM fields)?

Cheers and thanks in advance.
