<p><strong>Dear Madam,</strong></p>.<p><strong>I am a final year hotel management student. I wish to pursue MBA abroad. What is the procedure to apply to foreign universities? What will be the fees? Please suggest some good universities.</strong></p>.<p><strong>Mansi</strong></p>.<p>Dear Mansi, </p>.<p>With a three-year degree, you are best-suited to apply to universities in the UK, New Zealand and Australia. Typically, entry into all MBA programmes requires a minimum of three years work experience. However, there are a few good universities that offer MBA programmes for students who are fresh out of college with no work experience. You need to write the IELTS exam and GMAT (if required by the university). Applications are submitted online on individual university websites. Transcripts, copy of your passport, statement of purpose, resume and referee details have to be submitted online. Test scores like GMAT, IELTS should be sent directly to the universities from the respective boards. For the countries mentioned above, the duration of your MBA will be one year and depending on the university, the total cost of tuition and living expenses will be anything between Rs 20 lakh to Rs 35 lakh. The UK gives you a two-year post study stay back option and New Zealand offers all international students three-year post study work visa. </p>.<p><span class="bold"><strong>Dear Madam,</strong></span></p>.<p><span class="bold"><strong>I am a Class 12 student.
