I speak to several people who already have an MBA degree from India, and are now looking to get a similar qualification form the US. If you are in that position, you can of course apply to a leading MBA program aboard as many of them will allow to apply as long as you explain why you want and need a second MBA.

You could also consider the Master of Science in Management Studies program which is open to applicants who have completed or are in the process of completing an MBA or equivalent Master’s degree program at a non-US institution.

This is a relatively new program at MIT Sloan offers the opportunity for talented students from around the world to enhance their expertise in a chosen concentration within management studies. The program accepts top MBA or equivalent degree students from non-U.S. business schools to study a specific field in depth. Participants in this program will take classes and write a thesis in their chosen concentration subject. Participants enroll in regular MIT Sloan elective classes and can take classes in other MIT departments or at Harvard University.

The program lasts 2 semesters. Upon graduation, participants will join the ranks of MIT alumni and be able to tap into its international network
