Hey guys, now I have these 2 admissions and frankly, the pros and cons for these 2 schools make it hard to choose.
USC's location is great with a strong alumni network. However, the total cost is a bit too high and the employment rate may be the lowest among Top 30.
I've talked with current Chinese students. They are so nice and they told me that 8 out of 10 Chinese students had received intern in this summer, which makes me confused about its reported employment rate.
WUSTL's reputation is somewhat better than USC, but the location is a bit of...well, it's too regional.. However, I got info from current Chinese students that the employment rate for Chinese is quite good, 14 out of 17 Chinese in class of 2014 found full-time jobs and stayed in US.
My WE is tax advisory in China in a Big4 firm for 4 years. My post-grad goal is Big4 consulting or any other same tier consulting firms in U.S. And my plan B is to back to China to get employed in local PE/VC.
So, guys, would you pls help me and offer any suggestion?
