No advice to give, however congrats on not letting anything hold you back and getting into a top b school.

Would love to hear your insights on what you thought differentiated you from the pack, given ER from a nontarget is fairly untypical of the pack especially at Stanford.

-Stanford is clearly the best but there are far less HFs out West -Columbia is not ranked as high as Booth but what it does best is public market investing. The placements from the AVI program are significantly better than Booth, on par with Wharton, and a touch below HBS.
-Wharton is Wharton. Even in a start-up obsessed age it will seem like everyone wants to HF/PE.
Do you have an East Coast or West Coast preference? I would honestly put Stanford as first choice, Columbia/Wharton tied for second, then Booth.

Agree that Stanford is probably the play here. Congrats!
Thanks!

Im guessing this deleted comment was asking if he was an URM..
Only question i have is besides what you told us OP what is different from your apps that got you in since thats impressive selection of schools to get into.
I'm no MBA expert but i personally would attend Stanford...unless the scholarship Wharton offered you is substantial then that might alter my decision.

You're clearly not some marginal performer; you'll get whatever you want from that list of schools so might as well go with the "best" one. Had Wharton been a full ride the calculus would have changed-see if you could negotiate. Short of that pick the one you like best; go to a couple of ASWs and get a feel for each school, your potential classmates, etc.
But congrats on a fantastic cycle. No wrong answer here.
