So I live in the bay area and am applying to schools all over. I want to go to the best school I can. I was wonderig if I want to end up back in the bay, is this a good idea?
I don't have the numbers to get into haas/stanford, but I'm looking at schools ranked in the 30-45 range.
If I want to end up back in the bay, is it worth it to go to a school on say the east coast compared to somewhere like USF, davis, irvine?
TIA

It's definitely easier to conduct a job search in your backyard than across country. Coming out of HBS, there was a large contingent of my class that wanted to come out to the Bay and for standard jobs with standard companies in the area (think Gap, Well Fargo, etc.), it wasn't an issue but to find opportunities with smaller companies was. Within the last few years more and more people from my class have moved to the Bay, because they weren't able to conduct a proper job search when we first graduated.
I say all that to say, that it should definitely be a consideration. Not your only consideration, but you should probably apply to at least one bay-area school and then if you decide to go elsewhere, be prepared to make the investment to make the cross-country job search. Being from the area already will help a bit, but it can definitely be tougher to do.

so, the maindraw back is the difficulty in job searching? that makes sense of course. Only other drawback I can see is lack of alumni/connections.
I'm just curious why a lot of people think it's not worth it to go outside of the area they want to stay in, unless it's a top 10 school they are going to, other than the reasons discussed.
