Hi All,
I have been accepted to both Weatherhead (with scholarship) & SUNY Buffalo. But having a hard time deciding where to go.
Both are great programs, but while the average work ex of SUNY Buffalo MBA is 2.1 years
(that's quite low & can explain the low average starting salaries) it's closer to New York. Where most of the graduates actually go for jobs.
Weatherhead on the other hand is a great program but in Cleveland. (Now i am not too sure about the job market in Cleveland, but it's not steller. Anyway, Cleveland again is about 8 hours from New York, so that pretty much equals out.
My intended post graduation industry is technology and my concerns are -
1. Everyone i seem to know prefers SUNY Buffalo (maybe becasue of the strong international presence at SUNY
) over Weatherhead (Case is great University but seems to have a low repo ??? correct me if wrong)
2. Mid West versus East Coast for intended/better career prospects ???
I am inclined towards Weatherhead because of better fit but doubtful due to career prospects.
Guys, i would really appriciate if any one can comment on this.
