SMU Cox Vs Vanderbilt MBA(FT)

Hi All,

I have got admits to both SMU Cox and Vanderbilt MBA. I have scholarships from both ( a bit more from Vanderbilt).
I am inclined towards Consulting and more into general management positions in the long run. Also I am not so inclined to work only in Texas where I understand SMU has an edge, but overall I wanted to know how do the two schools compare?
which one is better known internationally?

Help really appreciated!!!...

@Swagon - what do you really love about Cox ?..One of the things that concerns me is they are known only in DFW area and not much in the rest part of the country. Vandy seems to be pretty solid in terms of acads as well as being known as a close to Ivey leagues. How will you really decide?

@oldmansacks - Not really a full ride but a good one.

cinnamontoastcrunch - I heard even Vandy has lot of gorgeous girls around. True or False?...

I would stop riding Swagon so hard about his love for Cox. Asking him for all the juicy bits like you're doing can really only blow up in your face.
