Hi there,

Thanks for posting. Your grades sound solid, and I don't know a ton of detail about your work experience but it sounds like you have received some recognition and gained some quality experiences at prominent firms. The NGO experience is always a small plus as well. You haven't mentioned what region you are interested in or much about school factors beyond wanting scholarship/financial aid... keep in mind that there are many factors to consider, and also that scholarships are fairly limited and best chances are at schools where you are well above their average in terms of GMAT and class profile stats. Finally in terms of 1-year programs, they are more limited especially in the US; at your GMAT level and knowing the limited amount I know about you, you could look at BU, Mendoza, Babson, Thunderbird, Hough, Katz, Pepperdine in the US... there's CASS and Imperial in the UK... perhaps Bocconi, perhaps some schools in Australia or closer to you in Asia, within all the more your score is higher than average and overall profile more competitive, the better your chances for scholarships.
