Agreed. And that is also probably my number one option since L-1 visa is easier to get.

I think of it as more of a long-term investment in terms of having a strong network (for when I open my own investment fund) and also H/S/W or Columbia/Booth would kind of complete my CV with some management/business knowledge and a super strong brand name.

Not sure yet, and this is still a long time away, just looking to gauge the chances I might have.

 

Yep, so I looked on the CBS, HBS, and GSB website, the test needs to be valid by the time I submit the application, so planning to apply in Fall 2026 with 2 years in ER and one year in ESG Research so 3 years work experience total. (For 2027 entry)

Sounds like a plan. Good luck.
