Bachelor of Arts to MBA : Study Mismatch?

[iopyud]

Yes, it's another topic about Study Mismatch but I can't find any that relates to Bachelor or Arts.

So, my Bachelor of Arts' major is somewhere in the line of international relations study. Would it be a study mismatch if I decide to take a MBA?

I heard MBA is for all and even for people who want to change fields.

 

[iopyud]

Up.

 

[iopyud]

Up. Would it be safe to assume it's not a mismatch at all?

I'm just worried about the major.

 

[iopyud]

Another bump.

 

[iopyud]

Up

Same problem here, even i am a Bachelor of Arts with 6 years of work exp, i have got an acceptence from Humber college for Project Mgmt still worried whether its a mismatch... kahin reject naa ho jaaye.

 

[iopyud]

Alright, we're in this together. Can you please tell me how your case turns up?

Is the program your taking a PGD?

 

[starlettedouze]

As long as you are able to justify the shift in your SOP, then it wouldn't be a problem.

 

[iopyud]

Well, I have a very valid reason : if you want to be anything more than an office grunt here in my country, you need a MBA.

 

[nittrik]

Yes its a PG course, i wanted to go for a PG diploma in Financial services compliance administration from Seneca based on work experience but someone suggested me not to go for it because i may be working in financial services but my study doesn’t match with this course, my consultant has suggested me to apply for PG program in Project Management from Humber.


There’s an option of switching your course so I may change it once I’ll get my visa

 

[iopyud]

Alright. Goodluck.

 

[nittrik]

Alright. Goodluck.

Thanks buddy

My issue is slightly related so I'll just use this thread.

In short, I have a B.Sc. in Engineering Physics (minoring in Computer Science) from my home country. Now I want to do another B.Sc. in Computer Science, this time in Canada. Will CIC see this as a mismatch? I'm planning to explain it in my SOP by my desire to change career paths, and by the fact that I can't continue my studies with a M.Sc. in Computer Science, since all Master's programs in CS have a Bachelor's degree in CS as a requirement for admission. Does this sound good?

well it is a mismatch but u can write about ur passion for CS and how it will be better than eng physics in ur home country....if there r any documents that u can provide it will be a plus. I dont know what documents u can attach do u have any experience or volunteer work done in CS ? any course or certification in CS?

Thanks for your reply. It is indeed true that there are more job openings in programming than in physics-related jobs pretty much everywhere. I don't have any courses or certifications in CS (besides the minor in my B.Sc.) but I guess I could point out that my grades in the CS related classes I took at my university were always a notch better than in physics, math or whatever else. I also worked as a teaching assistant for basic courses in Java and C programming, so I probably should mention that too.
