Postgraduate

A postgraduate degree is a major decision that must be considered carefully. Through our counselling sessions we determine your postgraduate readiness (MBA, Masters, Executive Education, Ph.D) and chart out your career progression. At Open Canvas we will work with you to evaluate your profile, understand your academic aspirations, identify the right fit colleges and finally mentor you through the complete application process.

MBA

When you are at a juncture in your career where you are conflicted about the way forward, an MBA could provide a springboard to facilitate or accelerate your career goals. An Open Canvas counselling session will evaluate your current profile, understand your professional objectives, and provide specific actions towards achieving them. When you are application ready, we will identify right fit colleges and work with you through the complete application process.
