Exec MBA no sponsorship @ Booth - go for it?
Hello
I am a director in legal (derivatives) at a French IB in London. I have been admitted at Booth London with a 25k scholarship. My employer is very favourable to the MBA but cannot fund it (at least this year). I can finance it but am wondering if Booth London is the best programme and if this is a good investment for my career. My purpose is to transition out of a specialist role and pursue a career on the FO.
I have seen alternatives (Wharton Global, LBS Columbia) but not sure I would get a scholarship. At the moment, I am thinking that the best course of action may be a frank conversation with HR asking for the change it would make internally if I go for the MBA and the kind of roles that they would offer.
Any suggestions?

Fingers crossed that one of those helps you.
Current EMBA Boothie. The network is massive. I just started networking and have gotten a response from 40% or so of the alumni I've reached out to. I'm trying to pivot to IB from another business sector. I know that's like trying to swim against Niagara Falls. I've had very good responses from the network. Looking at a smaller IB in a secondary market. But the Booth name carries far and wide. Being #1 on US NEWS MBA 2023 ranking also helps 😎
