I’m a 23-year-old currently attending Chemeketa Community College in Oregon, planning to transfer to the University of Oregon’s Lundquist College of Business to complete a degree in finance. Since a young age, I’ve been involved in managing and growing my family’s restaurant business, which currently has five locations that I intend to expand. I’m hoping to clarify if my years of experience working in the family business can be considered relevant work experience for MBA applications right after undergrad.
Looking to use an MBA to career switch into Finance. Have a CISSP certification. First Gen College Student. MS in Information Systems right after undergrad (2.9 GPA - concerned this might be an issue). Will have 5 YOE by matriculation (looking to apply Summer/Fall 2025). One promotion to Senior Consultant.
Army Officer and United States Military Academy grad with an engineering undergrad degree. Worried about GRE scores for target schools, casting wide net right now, but may not take test again due to other circumstances.
