And even if you aren’t…maybe it could be a good idea? It all depends on what interests you, frankly. Like, if you want to take on a management position with more responsibilities and a higher pay range for your first job, you might be asking “ After BBA can I do MBA?”

An MBA after BBA is one of the most common choices for BBA graduates so yes, you can.
