MBA Decision Help! Kellogg vs Stern (Full Ride)
Background: Coming from Corporate Finance in Tech in Chicago Post-MBA: Consulting (MBB) or Tech Post-MBA Location: Short term- NYC (if possible) but Long term- Chicago
Happy to be in this position but struggling with my decision (and the added unknowns of covid are not helping either!)
Kellogg Pros: - Ranking and prestige are higher - Quality of current students/alumni network is better from my personal experience - Better placement in MBB - Strong Chicago alumni network helps my long term goal of settling down in Chicago
Cons: - In my comfort zone- I have lived in Chicago for 5 yrs. and know a lot of people who have gone or are going to Kellogg - Really removes the opportunity to move to NYC - On a personal level, my significant other will be moving to NYC in the fall so we would have to deal with long distance
Stern Pros: - In NYC- would be able to network more easily and potentially get an internship during the school year - Full Ride- I will say this is a lesser pro for me given that I currently am in a very lucky position to not have to take out any loans to pay for school - Out of my comfort zone- would allow me to experience something new - Wouldn't have to do long distance
Cons: - Stern brand name isn't as strong, especially in the Chicago area for my long-term plan - Harder to break into MBB - Didn't click with the current students as well as with Kellogg - Uncertainty in NYC and potential for virtual classes seem higher than at Kellogg
Would love any advice you all have.
Cheers!
