UNC vs Cornell MBA for IB
I am an Indian with 5 yrs of Indian MM IB exp. Looking to break into US IB post-MBA. Which is a better option: UNC with $66K scholarship or Cornell with no scholarship? Thank you.

I would take Cornell but curious what others think.
Cornell
The Cornell MBA program has a highly structured IB recruiting process that will train and place you into NYC. Not sure on UNC, would guess it places better in the south.
You're fighting up hill battle with getting sponsorship (also see if either are STEM) - the move is Cornell. 66k is what you'll get in signing bonus.
I believe Cornell also comes with heavy banking competition (vis-a-vis UNC) as it's primarily a finance school. UNC places ~30 in a class of 280-300 in banking while Cornell places ~60 in a class of ~300.
