College Decisions [#permalink] New post   09 Dec 2013, 06:38
Hello,

I am trying to choose one out of the following programs:-

1. M.S. Supply Chain Management- Olin Business School (WashU)
2. MSB Supply Chain Management:- Smith School of Business (Maryland)
3. MSB Logistics Engineering:- Fisher School of Business (OSU)
4. Master of Management:- Simon Business School (Rochester)
5. Master of Management Studies (FOB):- Fuqua School of business (Duke)

My profile:-

Country:- India
GMAT :- 710
GPA :- 8.89/10
UG Discipline:- B.S Nautical Technology
Work experience:- 1 year internship and 6 months FT as 3rd Mate with a Japanese maritime logistics company.
Career goal after graduation:- Consulting with a focus on supply chain optimization and sustainability.

How do the Simon and Duke programs compare against each other?

Which is the better SCM program- WashU OR OSU OR Maryland?



Thanks!

University of Maryland and Duke are going to have better name recognition and global reputation (particularly Duke), but all these programs will likely set you up for success regarding your long term goals.

Thank you for the reply!

Personally, I am leaning more towards WashU. Although it's going to cost me more money, it's a highly selective program with a small class size. Plus, Olin is higher up the rankings than Smith or the others isn't it?

Can you give me your opinion on the program and the school in general?

Also, what do you think of the MS program at Simon? I have a decent scholarship offer from there.

I have to make a decision within a few weeks.

Thanks!

Sorry- you are right I did not notice WashU in your original post as part of the final question. They do indeed have a fantastic SC program and would better U of Maryland in that area for sure. Simon is a good program and would likely get you access to your target career. If they scholarship offer is decent, it could figure into the mix, but if it were me, I 'd go to the school where I felt I fit in the best. Hopefully you will have a chance to visit them before you decide.
