Is UMich Ross worth 80k/yr as an international student?

Hi all, admitted to Michigan Ross BBA as an undergrad international. Waiting on deicisions from ivys/duke,stanford and NU. My parents have saved up enough to pay for the 80k/yr so I will graduate without debt. I wanted to ask if Ross is enough of a target to make up for international status, is it worth it, how are placements in recent years.

First of all congrats on getting in! Just to shed some insight, I’m currently at Ross and don’t know any international students who don’t plan on working in the US after. Is there any reason why you wouldn’t want to go to school in the country/region where you want to work. If you’re just asking about status, Michigan may not be as prestigious but they have one of the largest alumni networks.

 

Yeah, defo want to work in the US after grad. I meant is Ross prestigious enough a school to make up for companies having to sponsor me for h1b. Since its a lot harder for internationals to get top jobs, will Ross still be as strong a target as it is for domestic students?

 

My next option would be the UK for about 50k a year for 3 years. All in prolly 120k USD difference. I personally think this difference is worth paying for to work in the US (if international students place at top positions from Ross) unless I get into LSE or Imperial in the UK
