1. Get into BCG

2. Take a step back from work and reimagine my thinking towards problems in business and society

3. Build a lifelong network that goes beyond age, region, and sector Many young professionals struggle to crack above 3 goals since they wait to hit the right -age to do an MBA, -Score relevant GMAT scores, -Attain financial aid to get into ISBs of the world! And this is exactly why we at GGI run Impact MBA Scholars to solve these 3 problems by- 1. Onboarding 19+ top employment partners in #managementconsulting and social impact 2. Providing #upskilling with interactive business Masterclasses with top leaders (eg- BCG Ex-Chairman, BlackRock Chairman) 3. Plethora of offline and online #networking parties and get together of cohort who join from various geographies, universities and industries I will be very transparent. I have been very fortunate in my 20s with opportunities but I do realize my struggles with GMAT and how many friends of mine dropped out of ISB because they couldn't afford it. And our purpose at Global Governance Initiative is to provide inclusive and quality management education for all !

3. What are the program fees?

Our competitors charge Rs. 3,00,000 to Rs. 7,00,000. So we decided to try crazy pricing. We are 80% cheaper than our competitor's price. We are doing this because we want to make high-quality business and policy education truly accessible to you all and disrupt the space. 

 

Or if you don't want to commit, we have no questions ask full refund policy within 6 days of enrollment payment, i.e. if you are selected ( we have <10% selection rate). Either way, you win. To get detailed pricing and information, it is accessible on our application page here
