Help in Univ Selection [#permalink] New post   12 Feb 2006, 04:54
Hie every1,

i got admit from Eller for MS-MIS. However, now i hv a good head-ache. I hv got 6 admits till now......

1. Univ of Arizona (Eller)...admit
2. IUB (Kelley)....admit with 9500$ aid
3. CMU......admit
4. TAMU (Mays)....admit
5. Univ of Cincinnati...admit with 6000$ aid
6. OSU (Spears)

Well , out of these i hv shortlisted Eller , CMU, Kelley.....i hv to decide between these 3.

Eller.....Ranked 1 for MIS...but i feel the corse is a bit too techy....i wanted more balance between business and techno courses. However, good placements but again more techy jobs like System Analyst.
I want to enter something like Management Consulting or Strategic Management.

CMU.....best placements but really expensive .....17500$ per sem.
i really wanna go here but the cost is scaring me.

Kelley.....Good course but dont know much abt their placements or job profiles of their MS-IS graduates.

Plz help me out pepl......help me decide. Do Give ur opinion.

Congrats on all those acceptances. You have a wonderful problem!

What do you want to do after your MBA? Which school has the best placement in that field.

The same questions apply. Do Deloitte, PW, E&Y, IBM, et al. recruit at all the schools you are intersted in? In the same numbers? for the positions that you want? If no, go to the one that provides the best professional opportunity. If yes, then look at the curriculum and the culture of the different schools. Which do you prefer?
