Who should attend a QS event?

Our events are designed for anyone considering an MBA or master’s degree and seeking to advance their education and career. Whether you’re just starting to explore your options, ready to apply, or looking to network with peers and industry leaders, our events provide opportunities for personal and professional growth.

Why do I need to register?

Same-day registration is available for both Discover and Connect events, but we encourage you to register early. Our events are popular, and we have limited spots. Registering ahead of time ensures a more seamless and personalized experience at our events. Once you’ve signed up, we’ll send you useful details ahead of the day and a QR code to get you in.  

For our Connect and Connect+ events, early registration saves you time on the day of the event, allowing more time to meet with schools. We’ll send your meeting schedule beforehand, so you’ll have more time to prepare for discussions with your matched institutions. Meeting availability is limited.

Are the events all free to attend?

Yes! Our events are completely free to attend. Plus, each year, almost four in five attendees apply to at least two schools they meet at a QS event – so it’s worth your while. 

Can I request who to meet?

If you’re attending a Connect or Connect+ event, we’ll match you with the universities or business schools based on your CV and preferences. You’ll then receive meeting invites from your matches. You can meet as many of your matches as you choose. 

At our Discover and Discover+ events, you can drop by any university or business school booths.

It was a very engaging meeting and I got to ask all the questions needed. I now have more clarity on which school I should go for. So thank you for that! Hope to join more QS related events in the future.
