MBA aspirants take note – there are RM5mil worth of scholarships available at the QS World MBA Tour including one to Wharton Business School at the University of Pennsylvania in the United States.

“The purpose of the awards is to enable talented individuals to attend leading business or graduate schools so that they can acquire further skills in leadership, teamwork and corporate governance,” said QS managing director Nunzio Quacquarelli.

He added that most of the 700 Malaysian candidates who visited the inaugural fair in Kuala Lumpur last year had thought of the issue of funding.

The World MBA Tour is the largest of its kind. This year, representatives from more than 360 business schools will travel to 56 cities.

They are making a stop in Kuala Lumpur tomorrow.

What distinguishes the World MBA Tour is the quality and diversity of the schools present at every event.

MBA aspirants can discuss with representatives of these institutions and also get advice from experts on how to prepare a successful application.

More than 70 business schools will be represented in Kuala Lumpur including the London School of Economics, Princeton, Cornell and several top institutions in Asia.

The fair will be open from 5pm to 9pm at The Westin Kuala Lumpur, Jalan Bukit Bintang.

Visitors can pre-register online at www.topmba.com or pay a RM20 admission charge on the day. For more information, log on to the website.
