Cornell vs Darden - Acceptance
[#permalink]
18 Jan 2012, 08:15
Hello consultants -- I am facing a pretty tough decision to make between Cornell and Darden since my acceptance to both MBA programs. I've personally been to both places and got to experience the campus culture, class culture, etc. I like Darden's learning atmosphere much more but Cornell seems to have a better brand name within the Asia-Pacific region (which is where I want to return to in the long-run). I'm a little more biased towards Darden's case teaching but Cornell appears to have a stronger focus on consulting with their immersion program with a consulting focus. Both are great general management program (although Darden might have a slight edge??).
What advices can you offer for me? Scholarships, location, class size are not to be compared for judgment since both programs are similar to me.
