Well, it's time to start thinking about the international b-school scene again. MBS students get the opportunity to go on exchange during Term 3, which for me is September - December 2002. We have about 30 schools that we're affiliated with around the globe, and there are approximately two places per school available. Despite the fact that exchange won't begin until September, we need to get our applications in by April 12th, and we find out in early May (just after Term 1 exams) which school we've been allocated to.
Since there are a few current MBS students who are reading this blog, I won't be revealing my application strategies until after April 12th, but I have made it fairly public to the MBS student community that I'm interested in exchanging to North America, preferably to a big city.
The US and Canadian schools that MBS have exchange arrangements with are:
- Columbia Business School, New York, New York
- Cornell University (Johnson Graduate School of Management), Ithaca, New York
- Duke University (Fuqua School of Business), North Carolina
- Indiana University (Kelly School of Business), Indiana
- Southern Methodist University (Cox School of Business), Dallas, Texas
- University of British Columbia, Vancouver
- University of California (Anderson GSM), Los Angeles
- University of Minnesota (Carlson School of Management)
- University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill (Kenan-Flager Business School)
- University of Southern California (Marshall School of Business), Los Angeles
- University of Texas at Austin (McCombs School of Business)
- University of Virginia (Darden), and
- University of Western Ontario (Ivey School of Business)
As you can see, there are heaps of quality schools on the list, although competition for the 'top' schools will be tight. We get allocated based on Term 1 academic results and our supposed 'ambassadorial qualities.'
