mba without undergrad degree


Posted Sep 17, 2009 19:53

Hello People,

I wonder what are the possibilities of getting in a reasonable international full time mba program in Europe, without having obtained a undergraduate degree.

My profile:
*8 years international work experience as a proprietary equity trader (4 years) and manager of small daytrading offices (the other 4 years)
*5 years of studying for 2 humanities degrees in college, without obtaining any (I didn't care about studying at that time, yes, irresponsible I know).
*I have plenty of time to study to get a reasonable GMAT score.
*I am from NW Europe.

My goal is to finish an MBA with prospective to get a better job as an international manager in trading/logistics.

What would you advice?

Thanks

I think it's pretty rare, among good schools. You might have better luck with an EMBA program, but then again, the well-reputed ones will probably only let in students without an undergrad degree under extremely rare circumstances, for people with exceptional profiles.

Can you take those five years of studying for humanities degrees and apply them to an undergrad program? Having that would increase your chances immensely.
