MSF - UT Dallas Vs U of Rochester (Simon Business School)

Hello All,

I have recently gotten admits from UT Dallas and U of Rochester, both for MSF programs. U of Rochester is offering me 40% scholarship. I am a bit more inclined towards Rochester as it is closer to NYC and might provide some advantage in recruiting. My end goal is to work in TAS at a Big 4 firm.

Which one of these schools is better regarded on the street?

Who has the better alumni network?

Which would help me out most when it comes to recruiting/ocr/etc.?

Which has the better environment?

Your opinion is appreciated. Thank You.
