Is it really essential to study the MBA at an Ivy league/ top 5 business school?
I hear so much about how there is no sense in studying for the MBA unless its at an Ivy league school or Top 5 business school.
I know those prestigious schools will offer me the best resources and a fantastic network,
but they also come with a huge price tag .
I am in London. I can study at London Business School for £25k per year - but is it really considered worthless to have obtained an MBA at a less prestigious school ???
(When i say worthless , i mean .. will any company employ me still? )
By the way , I am not being cheap over my education, i just genuinely cannot really afford it.
Thanks for your help and advice





You must be a troll. EVERYONE
You must be a troll.
EVERYONE knows LBS is an amazing MBA program and better than any Ivy MBA except MAYBE HBS & Wharton. And that's mostly American bias.
You're definitely kidding.

Of course i know that LBS is
Of course i know that LBS is best , but my question is that if I dont study at LBS, and go to a business school which is less prestigious , will employers still value my MBA? Or is it only worthy studying if you go to LBS?
I am not a troll.. but please read my question. I know LBS is the best , but that wasnt my question

It all depends on your
It all depends on your projections for your earnings. If you decide to take two years off to take an MBA, you are forgoing 2 years of income and debt. Unless you want to change careers or need it to reach upper management, an MBA is not necessary.

Petite Lap Giraffes are very funny animal that require special care. They need lots of love. Hugs and kisses every day. Otherwise they make tears.
If you have children, petite lap giraffes no problem. If child is loud, the giraffe will be shy, but does not bite. PLG’s are very clean. With training they will go in box like cats. Allergies never a problem.
Size: adult is 76 centimeters, baby is 15 centimeters tall. Weight is 4.5kg unless the giraffe is fat cow then 5.44kg
Diet: distilled water and bonsai tree leaves
Health problems: none. They are the best.
Living conditions: PLG’s love being indoors in filtered air conditioning. If they can listen to music of Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov it is dream.
Grooming: a bubble bath once a week with purified water is all they need.
Congratulations!!! You make

why are you slamming me, for just asking a simple question.
Forget i asked. If you didnt want to offer me any advice, you should not have bothered replying

In all seriousness, you
In all seriousness, you should be able to get a loan and the job you get coming out of LBS should earn you more than enough to cover any debt you incur. You'll be kicking yourself if you pass up that opportunity.
