Foster. You can’t beat the proximity to Seattle’s tech scene (ignoring Haas and Stanford). It also seems like Foster is in cahoots with Amazon, but I could be wrong.

If you want to live in Seattle, Foster will better suit your goals. However, just know that your network will be HEAVILY Pacific Northwest based. Not a knock necessarily so long as you know that going in. Employment report showed virtually everybody staying in the area. Mendoza's will be focused in the Midwest, sure, but you could likely connect with undergrad alum as well across the country, and the "Notre Dame" parent brand obviously carries a lot more weight. Good luck!

For that goal, I would definitely choose Foster between these two options.

Good luck with the decision!

Congrats again! I would echo my first comment, only this time the Georgetown name (and MBA reach) will likely be much more national than even ND. Does that matter to you? UW is my vote ONLY if you want to work and remain near term in the Seattle area. It has very little reach outside of that and many people are still new to learning that it is a program on the rise.

ND and Gtown carry weight with a brand name and are essentially on par with Foster for general employment outcomes. Can't go wrong here but I would say the deciding factor will be if you are comfortable marrying yourself to Seattle/the pacific northwest for the foreseeable future or not.
