Hi,

Im looking to get my MBA or Masters of International Business at a University in London.

I have a low gpa in undergrad ( under a 3.0 From a US university) and I haven't taken the gre/gmat yet

can i please have a list of schools that work with a low gpa. i have up to two years in work experience.

Also, any suggestions on what I can do to look more appealing when I apply.

Thank you guys in advance. Any thing will help

If you want to get into a good school then you'll need a GMAT score. Look at the bottom of GMAT Tiers - strong schools for your GMAT www.find-mba.com/board/27082

I'd imagine that your work experience will handicap you. For instance, check out the average work experience at these London MBA programs:

LBS - 5.5 years
Cranfield (not in London but nearby) - 7 years
Cass - 8 years
Imperial - 7 years

And since your GPA is lower, you'll want something else that's great about your profile to balance it out. A higher-than-average GMAT score would go a long way to helping you, but another two years of work experience would be even better.

I agree your work experience can help if its good enough to offset your low GPA

But at just two years of work experience, I doubt that this will be the case for this candidate.
