Take a look at Eduniversal. I guess they are the only body that would compare them all. Just be careful to not confuse MSM with the university.

I checked ediuniversal and I see AUC having 5 palmes (universal school) under Africa while university of Toledo is 3 pslmes (excellent school) under North America ? Does a 5 palmes school in Africa better than 3 palmes in North America
Another question what did u mean by don't confuse MSM with university ?

Yes, I think that suggests that AUC is a seen as a better business school than Toledo.

I mean don't confuse the Maastricht School of Management with Maastricht University (http://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/maastricht-university). MSM has a federal relationship with MU, but the rankings typically relate to MU's own business school, which is separate from MSM.

Hi Duncan,
I am not sure that u r right, I see eduniversal is comparing the business school per regions and doesn't compare them across the globe, so if AUC has 5 palmes in Africa region that does not mean it will have a 5 palmes if it is competing with North America region colleges, so it is a relative ranking with respect To the region , so Auc is having 5 palmes because it is compared with relative to the universities in Africa which are not as good as the ones in North America, plz have a look on the site. And let me know ur opinion

It asks for "relevant professional experience". Military service won't count, since you are not a professional soldier.

if i my GPA was 2.8, how do i increase my chances in entering this program, as i hear it's really hard to get into the program....
another question please, will the years of experience of more than 3 years give it's applicants a higher chance more than the only 3 years experience applicants to enter the program..

Look at their criteria. Improve yourself against them. Take a part-time or online course to get a second GPA to contrast with your first one. Get more, and better, experiences in work and outside work.

Good advice from Duncan. I'd add that you might check with the school directly, to see what you can do to improve your profile. Also, if you can substantially out-score their minimum GMAT score -- they ask for 550 -- this might give you some more leverage.

Dears,
I am 30 years old with 7 years of work experience at Telecom company, I am Canadian living in Egypt and I am planning to start an MBA. I Need your support to choose one of the following programs given in Egypt:
1- AUC
2-University of Toledo given through the American Chamber in Cairo
http://www.amcham.org.eg/education_training/cdc/mba/
3- Edinburgh Business School through its Approved Learning Partner in Egypt (Institute of Management Development in AUC)
http://www.aucegypt.edu/Business/mc/imd/Pages/MastersofBusinessAdministration.aspx

BR,
Amr



Hi Amr,

I am sure that both EBS and AUC in Egypt are fully accredited by the Supreme Council of Universities. For EBS, you just need to apply for the accreditation yourself at the Supreme Council and they will grand it to you. They recognise and accredit the EBS MBA diploma when the student applies directly himself at the Supreme Council.
