Hi,
I am an Indian, currently staying in USA. I am looking for Executive MBA programs in USA. I have a burning question that while selecting Universities, which one should I opt for ? I currently stay in the Richmond, VA area and targetting at UVA(Darden School of business). I also looked at modular EMBA program offered by Emory University which was quite attractive because I can complete my course from anywhere in the world as my job requires travelling every 2 years. I also looked at IE School of Business's ( Madrid, Spain) EMBA program with the same modular format. Emory University and IE Business School rank among top 15 in the Business Week EMBA ranking whereas UVA-Darden Business School does not stand anywhere in the EMBA ranking. I understand that networking is an important factor to be considered while selecting EMBA program. My question here is should I choose a university of higher rank (Online EMBA program) anywhere in the world or should I choose a University which is close to where I stay (UVA - Darden) to have a networking advantage ? Please guide.
Thanks so much,
Richesh
