about the scholarships

my name is Moshe and I am 22, but finished my BA at 18 and have been in the Israeli army for 4 years. can I apply for an MBA? or am I too young?

IE Business School

6/10 07:14PM

Hello Moshe, great, I'm glad you found it useful!

If you have any question you can send an email at [email protected]

Guest- Sharon

Thanks, I will check out the link

Guest- Ido

Do you consider military service as work experience?

IE Business School

6/10 07:18PM

Hello Moshe, you need 3 years of work experience to apply for the International MBA. The IDF experience can be taken into consideration in some cases but it depends on the profile, what you did there exactly, etc. You could also think about applying for the Master in Management which doesn't require work experience.

Guest- Itay Varkovitzky

Hi! I wanted to ask how do you treat people with ~10 years of experience? Do you recommend such people (if they are good enough) to come to IE?

Guest- Ben

6/10 07:21PM

Do you have any deferral process?

IE Business School

6/10 07:22PM

Hello Itay! Yes, you can apply for the International MBA. The average work experience of the students have around 5-6 years of experience, so maybe thinking in the Executive MBA could be an option for you too.

Hello Ben! Yes, once you are admitted to can defer your admission one intake.

Thank you very much for your answer! I'm not sure yet if it will be right for me to apply to the MBA or to the EMBA since I feel I'm borderline for both. How do you consult me to move forward?

Guest- Ofir

6/10 07:26PM

Will the studies be on campus or online?

IE Business School

6/10 07:28PM

Italy, I think it could be useful if we could have a call to talk more about your profile but thinking if you want to study a full-time program or blended could also help you to decide.

Hello Ofir! We have both options

It depends on how do you want to study your MBA

Guest- MEital

I am 32. Am I too old for an MBA?

Hello Elad! We have a holistic admission approach for the admission process. But I would say preparation is the key; from your online application until the interview.

Guest- Maor

6/10 07:53PM

Do you have fewer slots in your class this year due to COVID deferrals from last year?

Thanks! I'll write to you

IE Business School

6/10 07:56PM

Hello Maor! No, we don´t .Because of COVID we created a strict health protocols that allow us to keep the campus open last year and nowdays. Obviously, we had some deferrals but it was not significant in term of slots
