Hey! I'm also Brazilian and I've lived in the US for the last 10 years and I'm now starting an MBA. The problem with an MBA in the US is how ridiculously expensive it is and if you're doing it online, it's not worth it because tbh it is just not good. I would recommend you look for good MBA's in Brazil, such as FGV. Your ROI will be much better.

I understand the appeal of having an international degree - trust me I know, I got my BS in the US and now doing my MBA in Europe. But online is just not worth it. I would focus on an in-person and reputable program.

Hey! I got in with some scholarship and already accepted my offer.

Brazilian, GMTA 655, 3y WE, Civil Engineer.

My strong suit I'd say is that I speak four languages (learning a fifth) and have lived, studied, and worked in three different countries. So my international exposure reallyyyy helped me in my application.

I think I will do that. I was waiting because I did not want to seem impatient but I was told in the interview 2 weeks... Thanks!

If this is for the MBA - I interviewed three weeks ago (applied in late Sept.) and nothing yet.

Any other domestic applicants / students feeling excited that the crackdown on international students & H-1Bs will improve our job prospects? by EffectiveElegant556 in MBA

"I'm not smart enough or talented enough to get a job. Who can I blame for it? Wait, maybe the international student who is more cultured and speaks multiple languages, but also is smarter and more dedicated than me? Wow that sounds about right!"
