Need some help deciding between Ross (0% scholarship) and Goizueta (75% scholarship). Goal is to get into MBB or Tier 2 consulting firms.
Currently a data consultant at a Tier 2 consulting firm, looking to pivot into strategy/management consulting.
No preference on post-MBA location. I'm an international student from India. Goizueta's scholarship makes it way cheaper. Is Ross worth paying full price, or is Goizueta the smarter choice in the current market?
Would love to hear thoughts from people in consulitng or affliated with these schools. Appreciate any adivice!

Congratulations on your fantastic job ! I can say that the school name doesn’t get you into consulting but rather your skill set and the consulting club at the school.
Also, things such as having MBB folks on campus helps. You have easier access to them to network and so on.
However, consulting is extremely competitive and even people from M7 get dinged easily from consulting interview and recruiting process. Taking into consideration how painful that experience can be, I feel it would be very foolish to gamble such a big scholarship and then strike out in case something just doesn’t align.
I would say if you’re sad on MBB or nothing then absolutely go to Ross but otherwise I would choose Emery and try your chances and hire a consulting coach who can work with you individually and perhaps connect you with some current MBP folks to network and that would only cost you five grand at most.... Just a thought.

Appreciate the insight! I’m definitely not MBB or nothing. I'm open to Tier 2 and Big 4 strategy and other roles as well.
Never really thought about hiring consulting coach - interesting idea!! Thanks for sharing your perspective.
