Hello, I am Jay from India. I finished my masters in Electrical Engg at UK. I have a total work experience of 2 years in power industry. I am looking forward to pursue an MBA for fall 2012 at a decent university (need not be top 100) in the United States. Previously I applied for MS but I couldnt make it as my visa got rejected. Then I went to UK and finished my masters and returned to India. So, I have a valid GRE score (1170/1600) but my TOEFL scores are expired.
I came to know recently that 40-50% of universities are accepting GRE for admission into MBA programs. Some of the universities (UMKC, Indiana State, Eastern Illinois Uni, Indiana Uni of Pennsylvania) I contacted has given me an exemption to take TOEFL. Can you suggest me some more universities that suits my profile and also the best one among the four universities I have mentioned. I am looking for very cheap universities (which have better visa chances) as I have already taken a huge bank loan to do my masters at UK.
I am planning to finish my course in less than 2 years (1-1.5 years). So, one year MBA is also fine with me but I need to know for how many years the visa will be granted generally for One year MBA program. Any international students who r currently doing one yr programs please suggest me.

It is *NOT* true that "40-50% of universities are accepting GRE for admission into MBA program"
Look on the GRE website for a list of those that do. Maybe it's 40-50 in total?
