Congrats on your admits!

Booth definitely has an edge in PE/VC/Finance recruiting. Haas does make it easier to network in person but can you really take advantage of that vs. access to the Booth network and employers.

kmwantstogoschool or jessepinkman - what do you think in terms of Booth with $80K vs. Haas with full ride?


P.S. I am not sure that Booth will be moved by the Haas offer (maybe), perhaps worth a shot, but Kellogg definitely will be. Here is a post I put together on scholarship info. If you have any feedback about luck or lack of, please kindly post an update:

Hey OP, there’s a lot to unpack here but I will try wrt Booth:

1) Booth has been working on its marketing department and the faculty is actually quite strong now and the course material, especially in areas at the confluence of data and marketing is very strong. Lots of meaty classes to choose from such as algorithmic marketing, data driven marketing, experimental marketing etc.
2) I am a Kilts fellow myself - In addition to the scholarship, the Kilts centre offers networking opportunities and mentorship which can be helpful
3) Finance is Booth’s strong suit; PE/VC/Banking doors will open through a combination of network, student groups, faculty connections, Polsky Centre etc
4) Tech recruiting is okay - All big tech cos come to booth; for startups you have to do your own leg work though there is a decent amount of school support but it’s not super structured and Tech careers are not Booth’s USP
5) Healthcare - opportunities exist and there is school support but since Chicago is not a hub, this is not AS big.
