Top MBA Event

Most common questions

Is participation free for me?

Your registration and participation in the event are free of charge! To guarantee your best possible event experience, we recommend that you sign up as early as possible.

We understand the challenges candidates face as they seek to obtain an MBA degree. That’s why we at Access MBA have always stood by aspirants and supported them with a wide range of incentives designed to help them enrol in their dream programme. To reward commitment and ambition, we give candidates who have participated in at least three One-to-One meetings access to an exclusive draw for a EUR 1,000 scholarship.

Do I need to prepare for the event?

It’s highly recommended that you learn more about the schools you will meet beforehand. So instead of asking questions that are easily answered by visiting the school’s website, you can have deeper and more productive conversations with school representatives.

Is an MBA right for me?

An MBA degree allows business professionals to secure top management positions, increase their salary, and work at a global level. Joining an international MBA program will bolster your network, broaden your career prospects, and help you turn your entrepreneurial ideas into business ventures.

How do I choose the schools I will meet?

To expedite the process of selecting the right business schools, you will go through an orientation session before meeting school representatives to discuss specific admission criteria and your preferences. This session will take place either before the event over the phone or during the event.

When should I arrive for the Access MBA event?

The schedule will be sent to you upon registration. You will be able to request a different time slot.

What do I need to wear?

There’s no dress code, but we recommend business casual to make a good first impression.

Is a good level of English required?

Yes. All event features -- One-to-One meetings, panel discussions, consulting sessions, etc. – are conducted in English, so the better your English, the more you stand to benefit from the event.

We have also concluded data protection agreements in order to ensure adequate level of protection of your personal data.
We may also disclose personal data as part of a corporate transaction such as a merger or sale of assets. We also reserve the right to transfer personal information we have about you in the event we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business or assets (including in the event of a re-organisation, dissolution, or liquidation).
