Wharton is stellar, but given your financial considerations and desire for international exposure, MIT's OPT makes it a smarter pick. Also, the MIT + Harvard ecosystem is a massive long-term asset.

You seem self-aware and grounded. If leadership is your calling, Wharton’s EMBA will only amplify your strengths. Brand or not, top talent always gets recognized back home or globally.

MIT might be a more flexible launchpad considering your product pivot. The ability to stay back and gain international experience can help you recoup costs faster and add global credibility to your new career direction.

If you never intended to work in the US, then you could pick Wharton but if your plan is to try leveraging the network, it’s a valuable option.

I like that you get to come every two weeks though that can kinda get old but at the same time, that’s more FaceTime and you may be even able to work out something with your job so you can spend two weeks working from the US. (Just don’t say that to the Visa officer)

I don’t see what Wharton gives you that MIT cannot...
