I'm considering Emory's 1-year MBA since I plan to live in Atlanta after graduating and don't want to leave Atlanta. I won't need an internship. I also hear that Emory tends to be fairly generous in terms of financial aid.
My reason for considering the MBA is that I feel like I am incomplete without it to eventually pursue work at a hedge fund (long/short equity) hopefully in the Southeast.
Could an alumnus or someone else in the know speak on this?
I'd also love to hear from current students/alumni on their experience.





have you considered uva, duke
have you considered uva, duke and texas? i am sure they place well in atlanta as does emory.
Nah. UVA focuses heavily on
Nah. UVA focuses heavily on cases I believe, similar to Harvard. I prefer a nice mix of cases, lectures, etc. Not a big fan of Texas. Duke doesn't have a 1-year option. At Emory, I could do the MBA in just one year and network in Atlanta with finance professionals.
You're talking about staying
You're talking about staying in Atlanta so it's probably your best option f that's where you're sure you want to be.

I'm only thinking of the MBA to expand the network. I'm only interested in S&T though. I did my undergrad in Atlanta.

No not right after. Why would it be a bad idea? HBS historically has admitted people fresh out of undergrad. I remember years ago when a guy on BusinessWeek got into business school straight out of college. I mean, if you can get it done immediately, why not do that?

And getting everything done
And getting everything done in the easiest way for you with better scholarships and ASAP doesn't translate into the best move for your future

I agree shorttheworld,
I agree shorttheworld, however, remember I am only interested in S&T in Atlanta, not in NY. Also, most guys in S&T don't even possess an MBA. I will be twice as educated as the majority of them. An MD I met with recently went to my undergrad and he doesn't have an MBA or JD.
