How much more would you pay to attend LBS over ESADE?

Hi guys,

I am facing a small conundrum. I've already accepted the MiM program at ESADE and paid the non-refundable deposit (ca. €7,000). The total tuition for ESADE is around €27,000 but I am receiving a scholarship of €7,000, so I will only be paying €20,000.

Against what I thought were high odds, I have just recently received my offer letter from LBS for their MiM program, which costs €36,000 with no scholarship.

Now if I were to drop ESADE and attend LBS I would pay an extra...wait for it.... €23,000 to attend LBS -- (losing the €7,000 deposit + €16,000 which is the difference between the two tuition sums of €20,000 (with scholarship) and €36,000)

I hope I did the math right here...**Now my main question - is this worth it? **

My career goals are pretty on point with the normal MiM student

-Work for a top 5 consultancy in London, Switzerland, U.S. or -Be an Analyst/Associate at a VC firm in Europe or U.S.
