Undecided about which Boston MSF program to go!
Hello all!
A few things to consider: International Student going back home after completing the MSF. Don't have much savings, and my income potential after graduating is much lower because I wouldn't be working in the USA hence salaries are inherently lower. Will have Fulbright Scholarship which ONLY covers living expenses, also comes with the obligation to return to home country for a period of 2 years Will be 23 years old at the start of the program
My desire is to go to the best program possible, adjusted for the amount of money that I would have to pay for the degree. Of course we would all like to go to Vanderbilt or MIT for an MSF but taking a $90k loan would be detrimental in my case.
Here are my current options which I received admit to their MSF program:
Boston College - No scholarship money. UMass Boston - No scholarship money. Northeastern University - $12K scholarship. Brandeis University - $40K scholarship. Bentley University - 90% scholarship.
Selectivity, curriculum, rankings and placement wise I would have Brandeis and BC above the rest. But by how much would this edge be? Is it worth it several thousand dollars?
I am currently undecided and my top two options are Brandeis (because I think it is the best program and they awarded me significant money) and Bentley (I will basically complete an MSF for $6k). Is the difference between quality of the programs that much? What would you do in this case?
Thank you!
I dont know where do you come from but I would choose Brandeis
Do you have to study in Boston?! also I think you may not have enough risk appetite to study in US.
Otherwise I'd take boston college. maybe for Northeastern. Thought Brandeis is good but not entirely sure. (unaccredited b-school?) but I'm not sure.
Thanks for the reply.
Do you think taking $50K+ in debt to go to Boston College would be worth it when there are other good, more inexpensive options?
who knows dude. what other options are you meaning, and how useful are the options? like will your kid apply to BC? will you try to chase some alumni? so IDK dude, you gotta go figure yourself.
