Rice MBA
How is it? From what I can gather it has pretty good regional recognition so if you wanted to get into a BB that has an office in Houston you'd stand a decent shot for investment banking. Outside of Texas it's obviously not as highly regarded.
You basically summed it up. Respected in the south (specifically TX), but you will struggle with it outside of the TX area.
Respected in Houston.
almost all Houston BB energy bankers come from Rice or UT MBA
I wonder how easy it would be for someone without prior banking experience to land into one after an MBA from Rice. I know it's not always easy..and also one thing that ticks me off about Rice is that they do not have the so called "treks" to go visit major companies like some of the other schools do. This I think is a major setback for that school. That said, I am seriously considering their offer with 50% scholarship.
I think w/o prior experience in IB, you just have present a cogent argument for why you want to do IB (this goes for anyone w/o prior IB experience attending any school). Join some clubs, like the energy finance club, to demonstrate your interest, get good grades, and be prepared for interviews and you should have as a good of a shot as anyone else in your class.
That being said, I think UT MBA will give you the best shot out of any Texas program for Houston IB, and I would go there if possible.
That is true. Also, Rice has a 'WOW' factor among people in Houston. The big energy companies definitely love Rice a lot.. rotational programs at Chevron and Exxon are very lucrative too.
Well, they have a week on wall street (and there's something else they do in Houston during that time if you don't wanna go there) so that's kinda like a trek I guess.
reason you dont have treks to other place is becuase i dont think you know rice very well. rice places most of its class into energy related careers such as finance, human resources, accounting etc etc and most of those jobs are well in Houston... 3 miles from campus.
I am deciding between Tepper and Rice ($$). I am leaning more towards Tepper. I eventually want to come back to TX to work, but maybe not right away. Will the Tepper name weigh more than Rice in the long run and is it worth the extra $$ spent?
If you are sure you want stay in Texas, do Rice.
In this economy, I am loving TX for sure..and it's growing fast
Houston IBs recruit on campus only at Rice (Jones) and UT (McCombs). It's actually hard to make it into Houston IBs even from the top north-east schools. I have met few bankers in Houston from Wharton, Chicago, NYU and Columbia (who usually moved from the NY office) although the overwhelming majority are Rice and UT MBAs.
I must say that in recent years Rice MBA's have been hired more than UT's at the Houston BB.
Rice this year placed 4th in Finance in the World according to WSJ (UT was not in the top 10). http://www.ft.com/cms/s/2/74b8bd3e-06a4-11df-b426-00144feabdc0,dwp_uuid…
It also ranked higher than UT on the overall FT MBA rankings as well as on the Economist. http://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/global-mba-rankings
Rice actually has quite a few alumni on Wall St. where there is a one week treck every year, including the current CIO of George Soros Fund and cofounder of Blackrock (Keith Anderson). The CEO of Ernst &Young is also an alum.
I personally turned down Berkeley, UT, and USC to attend Rice.
In addition, Rice University as a school overall has more wow factor in terms of academics than UT out of state.
What school is Tepper?
tepper is carnegie mellon, didn't know a rice grad would be so ignorant,. Also a simple google search would have sufficed.
Carnegie Mellon? Sorry, but Pitt has more brand name if you ask most people...
There is no way, you could get an IB job in Houston, from there. UT and Rice dominate recruiting. I think even TAMU and SMU would have more prestige.
TAMU or SMU more than Tepper?? lol.. ok now I am seriously considering NOT attending Rice if this is the quality of students there!
You talk about Carnegie Mellon like is Harvard or Stanford...lol
Do as you like, but "in Texas" not going to a Texas school can hurt your chances with prospective employees. It's true that TAMU and SMU have more reach in Houston than any school that is not a top 5-10. It seems to be that Carnegie Mellon is a top 20 at most and you will have to network from Pittsburgh. Good luck!
agree.
CMU is closer to Harvard or Stanford than Rice is. The avg GMAT score at Rice is like a 650, which is fairly mediocre. CMU is a much more highly ranked program.
Now, for working in Texas, yes, of course Rice is the better option. Maybe TAMU and SMU are good options too, even though honestly those MBA programs are pathetic. If you want to work in Texas, go to UT-Austin or Rice.
What I am taking issue with primarily is your comment that Pitt has a better brand name than Carnegie Mellon. Now that's just a BIG bowl of wrong.
lol dont listen to bozo
he knows that tepper is better
So then.....Rice is good in Houston for BBs, right?
Yes, the best place along with UT to get an IB position in Houston.
Too bad that actual sector informed rankings like the FT and the Economist place Rice above UT-Austin
If you want to work and live in the US then you will be screwed if you follow the Economist/FT when it comes to rankings. They are global (Euro centered) publications.
Rice and UT Austin are both very good schools. Thing is if you have an undergraduate business degree an MBA is going to be largely irrelevant unless you are using it to increase your prestige factor or get a degree simply because it is mandated.
Outside of top 10-15 schools you will not get too much prestige. Does that mean a 30th ranked MBA program has only morons in it and is worthless? No. It means that if you work in that area and you are in a company and need an MBA to move up then it will give you all the necessary skills and tools to accomplish this. If you are laid off from Intel and want to break into GS then you will get absolutely zero value from that 30th ranked school.
I still don't understand the continued arguments about school. Unless there is a sports rivalry between schools arguing about which is better outside of the top 15 is pretty pointless.

Except that every year at Rice there is actually career switchers that get into Tier 1 BB.
Well i guess we'll agree to disagree-
I'm pretty confident most people here will agree that UT-Austin MBA>Rice MBA.
Let me ask you:
Do you agree that IESE-Navarra is the top MBA in the world? Do you think that Cal is a better MBA program than Harvard?
B/c that's what the Economist thinks
Do you think that Northwestern and Darden are worse programs than the Indian School of Business or ESADE in Spain?
B/c that's what the FT thinks
Rankings are really lame. BW has SMU at 18 (really?!) and US News has Univ. of Florida (they have a B school?) better than Rice.. they just don't make any sense after top 10.
Do you think Indiana, UNC, Georgia Tech etc are that much better MBAs than Rice? B/c that's what USNews says.
As far as the FT rankings, there may be some bias toward European schools, but if you take only the US schools it seems much more accurate than BW and USNews.
i agree with energy fin guy 100%.... I am in Houston and we are only going to Rice and UT for MBA's
You cling to the FT and Economist rankings like SMU does to BW. You question what undergrad prestige has to do with business school prestige, but that is comical at Rice where the answer is EVERYTHING. Without its undergrad prestige the MBA is nothing. Rather sad that it can barely manage Top 50 given the caliber of the undergrad, while SMU hangs in the Top 50 with a mediocre undergraduate program. Face it, Rice is the SMU of Houston. There is nothing wrong with those schools at all....unless you pretend that they are Top 10 programs, as you seem to think. No one in their right mind considers SMU/Rice on the level of UT. The only reason banks recruit at Rice is because they are in the same damn city.
And how in the hell did you get waitlisted at SMU? That says it all....
Your thinking makes no sense, since the FT rankings is not impacted at all by undergraduate reputation (Rice doesn't have undergrad Business). If anything, that would be the USNews, which however is not since Rice is ranked #38.
Second, if banks recruit at Rice just because they are in the same location, why not at UH? Also, why are some recruiting for NY or London?
My conclusion (just my opinion..please don't shoot me):
It is a top 25 school (the US News rankings between 22 and 37 are retarded) about the same level as Emory or WUSTL.. and that's the best it can ever be.. noway it can break the top 20 in near future. And yes, their undergrad prestige has a LOT to do with their MBA reputation. Also, they have one of the worst MBA program websites I have seen.
But it is great for opportunities in Houston with the only real competition being from UT.
Which schools in that range are overrated and which schools are underrated? (I'm honestly curious, since I've looked at some schools in that range.)
I don't see why everyone is arguing so much about the rank of Rice. It's obviously not a top program, but I think everyone agrees it's decent. Second and most importantly, if you want to land an IB job in Houston, it sounds like Rice is a great place to go. Who cares that it's not a top notch program? If your goal is to land an IB job in Houston, then Rice will get you there. In fact, you should be happy it's not a top notch program, because then it'd be a lot tougher to get into, and landing an IB job in Houston would be just as challenging as getting into a top 10 MBA program and landing an IB job in NYC.
Rice has been a "real" accredited MBA only since 1998. Before then it was just a marginal part-time program at the school.
What other MBA is top 25 and it's less than 15 years old? The president of the University (previous dean of Law School at Columbia) now is clearly stating Rice wants to play the MBA game for real.
My next thought is, if you are in the 4th largest city in the country with possibly the best overall economy in the US, you are a top research university with a really large endowment for its size, and you don't make the top 15 MBA list in a few years, then you are doing something wrong...
Ohio State, Arizona State, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Texas A&M, Florida to name a few.. are not better than Rice. They might have bigger alumni networks..but they are overrated.
I could see an argument being made for Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Who is going to move out of the top 15 to make room for rice? and why wouldn't any of the schools ranked above rice move in to fill that spot? rice isn't bad, but there a lot of other good programs out there angling for better rankings too.
top 15 is pushing it.. top 25 should be this year if US news gets some brain
It's already #21 in FT. That rankings is much more credible than USNews in terms of US schools (the international list has obviously some Euro bias).
couldnt you argue that its only more credible when it works in your favor?
also, isnt rice unranked in BW? i have a friend at rice who i know is having an incredibly tough time finding work
How does a school increase the rank of their MBA program that many spots? Has there been any schools that have moved up over 10 spots over the past 5-10 years? I only ask out of curiosity, since I figured that the relative ranking of the top 30 schools has remained more or less the same.
Vanderbilt went from 44 to 33 in the span of one year in US news. Not top 30, but it's still a pretty big leap (although there was like a 5 way tie for 33 this year).
http://www.jonesgsm.rice.edu/images/jonesgsm/Career/2008-2009_Recruiter…
If you look at page 2 of this report it states that "73% of students were employed by graduation- the highest so far since we started benchmarking" (paraphrasing)
73% employment at graduation is well below the employment rate of a top MBA program
Actually for the class of 2009 employment rates were well above the rate of top MBA programs.
In addition, do you really think somebody going to school in a city in the midwest has better chances to land a top job?
so the 73% statistic is for the class of 2008? what data are you using for Rice's class of 2009 placement rates and for the placement rates of other top MBA programs?
as for your second question- it depends where you go if you are going to Michigan, Northwestern, or Chicago then I'd say yes
EFG 1 AA1
GAME ON!!!
You are wrong. Rice is in Houston. Overall best economy in the US.
so explain the 73% employment statistic
Not comparing, but it's interesting..I see 84% on page 4..which is very similar to Wharton's 83.3%
What is all this talk about employment statistics. Who cares if a program has a 100% placement if everyone works at footlocker when they graduate. Wasn't the original question about Rice and IB placement. Rice will place well in TX and down south, but it will be an uphill battle in NYC and other major finance areas.
To the poster who talked about the quality of the Rice MBA compared to other programs and then mentioned alumni base; I don't know what you think an MBA is, but it really is all about the schools reputation and alumni base. This is an MBA, not a PhD program. Financial Accounting, Supply Chain, Marketing, these are all standard classes. I am sure Ohio State, Purdue, Rice, etc all teach these basic classes at the same level. The selling point is going to be the schools reputation and how it places in certain highly lucrative jobs.
Rice is a great school and whoever goes there will receive a great education. Unfortunately in finance where you went to school is sometimes (most of the time) more important than how much you learn. Sad, but true.
Agree
Should have no problem then at Rice since it's 4th in the world on FT for Finance specialty, ahead of LBS and Columbia.

Top for finance 1 University of Chicago: Booth 2 New York University: Stern 3 University of Pennsylvania: Wharton 4 Rice University: Jones 5 University of Rochester: Simon 6 London Business School 7 Columbia Business School 8 Macquarie Graduate School of Management 9 University of Iowa: Tippie 10 University of Toronto: Rotman
This is a joke. Tops for finance? Honestly, what school do you think places people in IBD,S&T,AM,HF, anything high finance (excluding corporate finance, commercial banking, etc)? Dartmouth isn't on here, Princeton, Yale, HARVARD!!! Common man, from this point forwards Financial Times cannot be used to support your argument that Rice is a Wall St Feeder, ok?
If you went to Rice (which I think you did) then FINE, it is a fine school, but why can no one just admit to themselves that RICE will not place on WS like top 10-15 schools. I mean how many threads do you see start with "Can I get into Rice?".
It's ridiculous that this thread is so long. We really can't come to a consensus that Rice is a good, but far from great school, that has solid placements for IB in TX?
Totally agree.
Wow, you just totally invalidated your case energy_fin_guy. If you hadn't continually brought up and posted the FT rankings, we might have thought them a little more credible because we were too lazy to look them up ourselves.
U of Rochester? U of Iowa?
Give me a break - pretty sure the average GMAT at those places would be 550 - 600. Tops for "finance"? Maybe finance jobs like retail brokerage or consumer/small business banking. Not knocking these places or jobs, but you are on an investment banking board where everyone is interested in high finance/capital markets related jobs.
Please stop trying to externally validate your experience there. Maybe you did learn a lot and really love your experience there and are totally satisfied with career placement. However, all you are doing is discrediting the university you are trying to promote.
Energy Fin Guy,
It really isn't an argument that FT's rankings are for shit. Both BW's and US News' general MBA rankings are pretty spot on (with finance in mind, too).
And before, you said something about UNC and Indiana. I'd definitely rather go to these schools than Rice (unless I was aiming for Houston). They feed better into NYC, Chicago, Charlotte, etc.
I see....A win-win situation for the so called "elite" MBA programs.
If the rankings confirm them as top, those need to be taken as the Gospel (US News).
If not (as in the case of FT), then those rankings are bulls!t? Right?
If anything Rice position at #4 in Finance says a lot about its excellence. In fact, it's probably much easier for a school like Columbia to be top in a specialty rankings, than for a younger program like Rice. That speaks miles about Rice excellence in Finance.
I don't think anyone has said anything about Rice not being a good program. It just isn't the same as the top programs. Please prove us all wrong. I wish you the best of luck.
It says nothing about Rice, because the quality of that list is atrocious. Like many other posters pointed out, Iowa and Roch are in the top 10 on that list (a joke)!. It is not an excellent program. It is good for Houston. It is misleading to those that do not know any better for you to use that list as an argument for Rice. Equally misleading was your statement about UNC and Indiana. This site is about advice, and your opportunities are greater at schools in the top 25 of US News and BW.
US News and BW are not gospel, they reflect, pretty accurately, the career opportunities for students in those programs.
This guy is ridiculous ...
So just answer me this energy_fin_guy: In your opinion, is U of Rochester and U of Iowa on the same level as Rice in regards to "Finance"? That is, are all three top 10 programs, in your opinion?
That's what you say. I trust much more the non-bias international point of view of the FT when it comes to US MBA programs than your opinions.
Fact: Rice is excellent for finance. Places very well in top IBs, commodities S&T, as well as in corporate finance of top companies in the world: Exxon and Chevron for instance. The FT recognizes that.
Your comprehension of what people are saying is incredibly poor. Yes, Rice places well with top BB's IN TEvXAS. Yes, Rice places well with big oil companies, IN TEXAS. Yes, Rice places well with commodities because of all the OIL IN TEXAS.
WSJ is very USA centric, FT is very Euro centric. If I want to know about the quality of Euro programs I will read the FT. If I want to know about the quality of US programs I will focus on US publications.
You are obviously 19 and going to Rice for undergrad. I say this because if you were in your mid twenties and going for an MBA you would be mature enough to hear what people are saying and except the fact that you are going to a very well respected REGIONAL MBA PROGRAM. If you do well you can do a lot with a Rice MBA, but by and large, the MAJORITY of Rice MBA's will not be breaking into front office in NEW YORK CITY.
This coming from an illiterate who confuses "accept" with "except".
Who says that Rice MBA's want to work in New York in the first place? Houston as of now has the best economy in the country, why leaving?
I think we're getting trolled.
Rice MBA --- What are your thoughts? (Originally Posted: 03/09/2007)
What do people think of the RICE MBA, specifically in regard to credibility when dealing with the top MBA programs...
1) Is the degree equivalent to multi-ply toilet paper
2) Is it seriously credible because of the Rice brand
3) Can you get into banking with it
I mean't when comparing to other top MBA programs.
I agree. This thread is getting out of control.
Rice/Texas MBA (Originally Posted: 06/22/2010)
I am currently a credit analyst at a MM bank. I am hoping to either move to that banks Capital Market Division or move to an Energy Banking MM or Boutique in Houston specifically. I simply cannot afford to take 2 years off and go to get my MBA. 2 schools I'm interested in offer weekend or night programs. Those schools are Rice and Texas. How beneficial would it be for me to do these types of programs? How bad will it look? I am realistic and know I will not work at BB so take that into consideration when replying. I haven't taken the GMAT yet, but plan on it later this fall and am shooting for a 700.
People get interviews at BB with no finance background at these schools. It's very possible for you. Either one is good.
I should have been more clear. I WILL be working while attending the MBA program. If you already took that into account, disregard. Thanks for the response.
No, I didn't take that into acct.... not sure how part time program works
If you want to stay at the same bank it will be fine. If you are trying to shift careers, I don't think it will "look" bad (both are still strong brands, UT more so) but I think you will have a tough time. As a part timer you will miss out on the networking opportunities and possibly some OCI features that really make an MBA program. It isn't what you learn in the classroom that allows people to get these jobs out of an MBA, it's the access, and part timers lose some of that access. I think you also lose the perception from recruiters that you truly want to change paths (from credit analysis to IB). While I will be viewed as a full time student who used to be something else, you are viewed as someone currently doing something else. Your answer to "Why banking" will be especially scrutinized considering you were doing a different job a few hours earlier.
I don't know why you don't think you can afford a full time program. My GMAT was only slightly over 700 and I got a very generous scholarship offer from Rice.
Hi PossumBelly, would you mind sharing a little insight about the Rice scholarship? What do they look at? Is that a separate application process after you got their MBA offer?
Thanks.
It's not a part time program, just not the typical MBA program. An example is every other weekend classes. It takes 22 months. I can't afford not to work. I am a little older than most here career wise I think. I'm 28, engaged, mortgage, other bills, etc. You made some great points I haven't thought of. I appreciate it. I am just looking for honest reponses so I can really think hard as to what i'm going to do.
Let me clarify. The MBA program is a "professional" program that takes 22 months to complete and can be done on alternating weekends or two evenings a week. It is till full time, just not the typical MBA program.
I'm 27 and married and just starting (not at Rice). That time frame is obviously beneficial but I still think my other reservations apply. Do those programs require upfront payment? I know the UT one has you in a hotel so maybe it is more cost prohibitive than a regular FT program.

top 10 in the world in finance, thats why i chose to go there
Have fun in the most humid (and fattest) city in the world.
"top 10 in the world in finance" - HAHA, what a gay thing to say
ok I am in houston and worked with quite a few rice mba's and even applying to rice so here is what i think
rice is number 1-2 (along with texas and tulane) if you want to do the following 1. banking in houston (bb, small shop, mid shop, good shop, shitty shop) 2. s&t programs in houston (same as above) 3. mba program at any big oil firm in houston 4. any other formal training programs for MBA's in Houston
i choose rice becuase something like 60-70% of their grads stay in houston(energy) and thats my pre mba exp and post mba goal... so for someone like myself it makes sense..
does it place well in BB's no...bb;s in houston yes
end of story
any rice mba's in the house? (Originally Posted: 05/24/2010)

Tell Keith Anderson, cofounder of Blackrock and CIO of George Soros.
Anyway, who says that Rice MBA's want to work in New York?!? I can promise you that the upsides are much better to stay in Texas. Rather, I would worry if I were going to school in Chicago or New York since it would be hard to break into BB in Houston. They only recruit on-campus at Rice and UT.

I heard there were 10 summer analyst positions awarded for 1st year Rice MBA's...UBS/GS/DB/few others
Pretty decent, although the candidates who got the gig had 700+ gmats and 3.8 gpa's.
hope this helps.
maybe stick with your 90 k pay package, impressive coming from TSU undergrad (pretty sad about your president buying personal furnishings with the school's money..wow).
That was a pretty bad time on campus. I only went there for 1 year but it was seen all over campus what was going on. I played baseball and was going to school on the east coast. I did some solid internships while there and it helped a ton post TSU. I worked one summer with ML - Energy and still use the contacts made via summer.I would not want to be there for 4 years. Tough place to learn due to ton of slackers. There are two other people in my class that are in finance and doing well.
Dr. Slade taught an ethics course fall 05 and spring 06.
In Houston, it brings the story up every once in a while, when they aren't talking about murders and what not on tv.
Rice won't be so full of slackers...
I am highly considering Rice for my MBA in the next couple years. But, I am 100% staying in Houston so it makes sense for my situation.

What do i need to possess to further strengthen my application. Thanks !!!
why the zeal and why would u want to go to rice straight from undergrad
Yeah, you are going to get the shaft during recruiting because you just have internships. This is bad idea. I appreciate the motivation, but I dont think this is a good option.
im semi wondering if this is a troll. granted rice is a good school but if you can launch a good start up career in a big 4, get 700 plus and have a 4.0... why rice? unless you have a hard on to do energy finance stay in houston and have a full scholly

Research what an MBA is.
Seriously? Dude look, get into UT's MPA program (#1 in the country) and do that to get the necessary hours. Don't do an MBA until you have solid work experience.
What if my long term goal is to start my own business?
On this thread you have had a successful trader, 2 analysts and a business owner tell you this is a bad idea. It doesn't matter what you want to do, an MBA straight out of UG is never the answer.
if you want to start your own fucking business then what the fuck do you need an MBA or cpa for?! unless its going to be accounting which i dont consider to be 'starting a biz' so much ;\
holy shit ass you sound like a 14 year old.
if you want to get a CPA, just get the hours at your current school or do an MPA program.
If you want to get an MBA, get a job, work for a few years, then go back. It makes no sense otherwise. You will be a total weirdo to your classmates and be virtually unemployable via OCI.
