One-to-One MBA Event

Paris | Sat, Jan 29

One-to-One MBA Event

One-to-One Meetings with the World's Top Business Schools

The Access MBA Tour is a series of One-to-One events connecting qualified candidates with admissions directors of top business schools through face-to-face and online meetings. The Tour helps aspiring business leaders start building a solid and sustainable career path.

On the day of the Access MBA event, you will:

Meet admissions directors during 20-minute One-to-One and small group meetings
Take part in panel discussions featuring school representatives and alumni
Receive advice and support from the Access MBA consulting team, as well as GMAT and scholarship information

How to Participate

Participation is free of charge and is by invitation only. Here is how it works:

Step 1: Sign up and complete the online registration form, preferably at least 10 days before the event. Then, we review each profile and call the candidates to gain a detailed understanding of their MBA projects, assess their motivation, and help them identify their options. The conversation is conducted in English.

Step 2: After that, we evaluate each MBA candidate’s preferences and requirements and match them with the most appropriate business schools.

Step 3: Those selected for One-to-One meetings receive a list of their scheduled meetings with business schools. Candidates can change the schools in the list by turning to their dedicated consultant.

Step 4: Participate in the event and find the best university for your future.

In the event of late registration or if we are not able to reach selected candidates over the phone, we offer to consult them on the day of the event in order to determine which schools they can meet.

Business Schools participating in the current region

Is an MBA right for me?

An MBA degree allows business professionals to secure top management positions, increase their salary, and work on 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.

Is participation free for candidates?

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.

Is work experience required to sign up?

Yes, most of the participating schools require at least three years of work experience on average. However, some programs are more flexible and are open to those with less or no work experience.

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.

Do I need to prepare for the event?

It’s highly recommended to 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.

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.

Which schools will I be able to meet?

To accelerate 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.

Is there a specific dress code?

You will want to look professional, so business or business casual attire is recommended. Opting for professional dress and business etiquette will be a great way for you to make a good first impression on business school representatives.
