IE has offered me a scholarship and ESADE has waitlisted me on the scholarship. After the scholarship, ESADE would cost me 15000 euros more.
I was looking up LinkedIn and it seems that all IE non EU graduates have come back to their home country, which is not the case for ESADE. This is also one of the reasons, I am leaning towards ESADE.

It would be best if you personally connect with some alumni of both schools (non EU students) and understand the situation on ground. Nothing would help you better than hearing someone's first hand perspective on the experience of job hunting and sponsorships.

Dear Nell,

Congratulations on your admissions to IE and ESADE! Both are excellent options for an MBA focused on consulting. Given your goal to work in Europe after graduation, ESADE's location in Barcelona could give you an edge.

However, the €15,000 additional cost is significant, so carefully weigh the potential return on investment. Reach out to current students and alumni for deeper insights.

If you need help with consulting case interview prep, feel free to contact Gaurav Bhosle who owns BeingConsultant, who helped me secure an offer.

Wishing you all the best in this exciting journey!

Warm regards­

Hey neelghosh.n, did you end up going with Esade for your MBA? Did they offer a scholarship too? I got an offer as well so evaluating my choices now
