Hi All,
While this may not be tag to ask this question, want to hear first hand views on:
1. how has the career trajectory changed after an EMBA from Booth
2. The booth EMBA is a whopping USD150+. In how many years can one expect to recover the cost and take in some moolah?

Await your views.

I’m still applying, but I have yet to find an alumn (Booth or otherwise) that regretted it. There are a lot of articles on this topic online. It is obviously easier if you get employer sponsorship or scholarships, but I think most graduates get 10-30% bumps by the time they graduate, which should pay for itself in less than 5 years, obviously depending on your comp. Also, I think Booth EMBA is $189k.

Submitted my applications. Is it safe to assume that if you are called in for an interview the odds of being accepted are high?
