3 TIPS FOR INTERNATIONAL APPLICANTS TO U.S. M.B.A.

PROGRAMS

While a report released Sept. 13 shows falling interest in attending graduate

business school, more international students are pursuing M.B.A.s in the

United States this year than last.

For the 2011-2012 school year, about two thirds of U.S. graduate business programs reported

receiving fewer full-time M.B.A. applicants to their two year programs, according to the Graduate

Management Admission Council’s 2011 Application Trends Survey. But about 45 percent of those

applicants were international students, up from 39 percent last year.
