I am a 2nd year B.Sc in hospitality student. Am I eligible to get admission in universities like Stanford for MBA in finance?
Can you suggest some good colleges to pursue MBA in finance? I don't have any work experience. I am planning to pursue MBA in finance after completing my Bachelor's degree.

Hi Chinmay,
Planning is good but you must also see how practical it is. Without work experience, you are less likely to get into any good business school abroad. And if you don't have work experience, you must be something extraordinary so that universities including Stanford will choose you and not those who have a better experience and a stronger application than you. Stanford is also one of the world's most selective university, they admit very few students so prepare accordingly and apply. For more options, you can check here:
