Admitted to Notre Dame ($$$) and Georgetown (no $) [#permalink] New post   25 Jul 2020, 08:39
Hi!

I have been admitted into both Notre Dame (Mendoza) MSB/MBA Dual Degree as well as the Georgetown (McDonough) MBA program.

Notre Dame has given me a 40k per year scholarship while Georgetown has given me none.

I have to decide by Monday whether to accept Georgetown's offer. I've already made the 2k deposit with Notre Dame.

I am an international student from India (currently without a student visa due to Embassy closures), and I will probably be taking either course online for the Fall semester. I'm a business strategist at tech start-up and my goal is to be employed in the US in well funded start-up.

Any advice will be helpful :)

Thanks,
Adnan

adnankidwai refer the following link: https://gmatclub.com/forum/notre-dame-v ... 89681.html
plus, having master's from Washington State is more beneficial than Ohio.
Rest is you have to see through all possibilities after getting admission.
Talk to alumni's on linkedin, they might be of some help.
Good Luck

Congrats on your admits. Georgetown is ranked ahead of Mendoza. Take a wise decision considering financial burden in this pandemic situation. All the best.

McDonough is stingy here. Go for Mendoza.
You know $$$ matters in this Covid

Notre Dame had the better alumni network. And they're giving you more money. And the ranking differential is not THAT big.
