I'm trying to decide whether to do my MBA at Kellogg or Duke. Duke has offered me a 67% scholarship, which is a huge deal, especially given the fact that I want to work in marketing and salaries are not as high as in other industries like consultancy or ibanking. In addition, I'm not American, so I may not be able to stay and work in the States to re-pay my loan. Nevertheless, Kellogg is the best for marketing... I have a huge dilemma, and would love to know what you guys recommend!! Thanks!
The first thing you should do, if you haven't already, is go to Kellogg and explain to them that you got this 67% scholarship at Duke, and while you prefer Kellogg, that's a lot of money to walk away from. Could they match?
Have you tried? If not, try that and then ask this question here. Maybe they won't match, but they'll come up with something that will make it a little easier to go to Kellogg.
Best,
Linda
