I have been fortunate enough to get into both schools, albeit with no scholarships at both.
I am an Indian, and while Kellogg looks great theoretically, I am concerned about the cost associated (I am relatively poor!).
Flexible in everything else, looking at Post MBA stint at General Consulting/Strat at Healthcare. Location agnostic.
On a side note, would it be possible to leverage Kellogg's Offer to negotiate a scholarship at ISB? A 50% or more scholarship would heavily tilt the needle toward ISB.
Any Advice is appreciated.

ZV93 hope this finds you well
Congratulations on being admitted to both Kellogg and ISB! It's great to have such stellar options, but I understand that the cost associated with Kellogg may be a concern for you.
Regarding your question about leveraging Kellogg's offer to negotiate a scholarship at ISB, it's possible, but not guaranteed. You can try to negotiate with ISB and explain that you have received a competitive offer from Kellogg, but ultimately it will depend on the policies and funding available at ISB. You can also consider reaching out to Kellogg to see if they have any additional funding or scholarship options available to you.
Gaining clarity on your long-term career plans is a critical factor when deciding whether to pursue an MBA in the US or India. A crucial consideration is whether you see yourself living and working in the US for the next 5-10 years, including the potential uncertainties that come with that experience. If you do not envision yourself in the US, you may want to go with ISB that better aligns with your financial planning and personal aspirations.
Best wishes
