Realisticly for me, Ross is Little Kellogg. They are very similiar, same specialities, same teamwork-oriented population coming from Industry/Consulting mostly, same region.

Only thing I can think differently besides Kellogg's strong ranking is that Ross is a little bit smaller and has programs in Sustainability with a strong Net Impact population. The Ross Tauber program is a wash with Kelloggs MMM program

If you have admits to both, I can't see Ross winning.

I concur with GoBruins. Every opportunity at Ross (except Sustainability) you will most likely have at Kellogg.

Just a clarification - Tauber's a 2-year program. More info can be found here - https://www.tauber.umich.edu/Program%20Details/index.htm.

I don't quite get the "wash" expression...

Which program do you find superior: Kellogg's MMM or Ross Tauber? And if one is superior, how bug is the difference?

Suppose you are accepted in both, but you are offered 30% of scholarship in Ross, and no scholarship in Kellogg, what would be your choice? Is the difference between both schools really worth that amount of money?

Well with 30% scholarship it's a tough call. But Ross Tauber isn't as strong from the MBA perspective as the MMM. Then again I have an MS already so a MEM was stronger than the global operations masters.

After visiting both schools, I thought that the MMM program had better foundation for product development. Tauber seemed more industrial, but I haven't done much research on the program.

Considering MMM is a dual-degree program and Tauber is not, I would say that the programs are not a wash.

I can see why people make comparisons between Ross and Kellogg, but I got very different vibes from each school.

Now, if we also consider the LGO program...what would be your considerations and rankings in the Operations/Supply Chain area?

Tauber offers a dual-degree as well in two years so with your logic are they back to being a wash?
