Stern vs. SMEAL for the Money
I recently got all my college decisions back and there’s four main contenders which are Lehigh, Villanova, Stern, and Penn State. I received no financial aid from these schools so Penn State would cost me ~144k total and everyone else ~300k. I am well aware that Stern provides much better opportunities for jobs in IB compared to PSU, but my parents are helping me out with around 100k so it’s a matter of how much debt I want to take on. No one around me really knows the business so I’d really like to hear what you guys have to say about it. Would I be able to make back that 200k loan for Stern to be worth it or would you stay away from it? I’m absolutely stuck. Thank you!
PSU + relevant experience + extracurriculars + networking + good GPA = good FT IB job; if things don’t go that smooth you can always diversify your options, look for transferable skills’ jobs and go into further debt for an MBA.
