American considering Singapore


Posted Apr 08, 2011 19:38

Hello,
I live in San Diego, CA but am seriously considering an MBA in Singapore. I know I have 3 choices: INSEAD, NUS and NTU.. Obviously INSEAD is the best but it is expensive, I will have to score a 700 on the GMAT and learn a second language to get in.. I'm more interested on your thoughts about NTU and NUS as they are more realistic goals for me. Also, I am most enterested in entrepreneurship / social entrepreneurship. Which school do you think would be better suited for me and why? Thank you in advance for your help.

Wow. Social entrepreneurship in SE Asia. That's a very interesting angle. Don't think you can go wrong with any of those schools quality-wise. My hunch is that NUS is probably a slightly bigger brand name internationally and it has a research center on social entrepreneurship, although it looks quite small. Good luck.

I also agree that NUS seems to push the entrepreneurship angle stronger than NTU. I've also spoken to Alumni from NUS that praised it highly.
