That sounds like a lot to juggle,
blackj. Since part-time and EMBA programs are not usually financed and Boston happens to be one of the most expensive places to live, you are going to have to make some sacrifices and compromises. I understand the allure of possessing a degree from a prestigious institution, but
bb brought up some fine points about networking as an experienced professional. Regardless of what you decide, I would advise you to think through personal and financial matters first.
(On a side note, I had to laugh when
bb wrote that EMBAs are for-profit programs, as though all other educational institutions were not-for-profit. The label
nonprofit might mean something to some people, but these institutions with their high tuitions and endowments that run into the tens of billions are not fooling me. Education is as much a business as any other field. Pardon the rant.)
Best of luck. Boston can be a great city if you have the money to enjoy it.
