Did you accept the offer, pay the fee and create the Cal ID? Few or all of these are required to be finished first. Also, it takes 24-48 hours after processing of fee that you get en email for the calId. And later on the Slack invite.

You don’t have to pay any fee. Just accept the statement of intent and create cal ID. The fee is the last thing you need to secure your place. I am on both Wharton and Haas admit list until I decide which one to I want to attend.

Hi there- What are your deciding factors? Just curious as I was looking at Wharton as well.

In no particular order.

1. Depth and breath of my peers.
2. Where alumni are currently w.r.t design leadership positions.
3. I am over the 80% median age, and don't want to be the "wise uncle" in the class. Looking at cohort age too.
4. ROI (have a merit award from Wharton, waiting for Haas to respond)

What about you? PM me if you want to talk over the phone. Would love to discuss.

Any thoughts on how to think between Kellogg vs Haas part time MBA programs? Anyone here have both admits and thinking between the two?

I live in Austin, Texas and ideally would like to stay here during MBA(personal reasons)

Commute- Kellogg-Chicago is an earlier commute than Haas - SFO or Oakland. Thinking about 2 years of travelling for close to 100 weekends +Kellogg

Network in the tech sector. I'm a Product Manager and want to stay in the PM track post MBA. Haas seems to have a better network in the tech sector. +Haas

Long term goal. Want to switch careers from Tech to Impact investing in late seed- stage accelerator in social sector. Not too worried about this since both schools provide similar opportunities for career switchers.

Brand name
Both schools are among the top 10 schools in US and are well known( Strong alumni network) outside US. Does brand name matter between Kellogg vs Haas if post MBA short term goal is to stay in Tech?

It seems like you've really gone out of your way to avoid doing this at Texas. So I'm imagining that maybe you don't want to be in Austin forever.

Well Berkeley might be stronger in tech, Kellogg is definitely stronger or just as strong in product management. So I think I would maybe call that a wash.

Have you done a lot of alumni interviews and spoken with people who are doing the thing that you want to be doing post-mba?

With regards to International reputation Kellogg is stronger for sure. I know that I sound anti Berkeley here and I'm not I love Berkeley but if you plan to take your MBA abroad Kellogg is the winner on that.

Because you're not changing careers directly out of the program, it might be meaningful to you that Kellogg offers lifetime career coaching.

That said it's generally a well-known fact that you should focus on your post-mba goal and really think Which school is going to give you the greatest likelihood of reaching that goal. the real Roi of an MBA is realized through the post MBA goal. A little bit different for part-timers but still true

What are your thoughts regarding Haas moving the fall semester to distance learning due to COVID-19? The main reason I chose this program was to attend classes and network with my classmates in person.

Every school is in the same situation. So it comes down to ROI. The applications are counter cyclical to the economy. If things look similar or bleak next year there will be more people applying.
