Full time vs Part time MBA

Another dilemma that most MBA applicants face is whether to apply for a Full Time program or a Part Time program. And the answer to this question can only be answered by you depending on your circumstances.

Advantages of Full Time program:
  • Preferred by recruiters
  • You are more focused during the study period, no distractions
  • You finish the program quickly and get into the job market sooner
Advantages of a Part Time program:
  • Its all about money, honey! Need to make the moolah on one end, while you splurge it on the other end over the programs. It is necessary and inevitable expenditure, ofcourse. And remember, the expenses do not end with the tuition fees. There are many more expenses in addition to that!
  • You retain your job and position while you are studying. You are in touch with your skill sets needed on the job
Again, I think it boils down to your finances in the end.

More soon...
