I'd go with Tuck - it's your safest bet. There is a near 100% chance you'll be able to find a great-paying, visa sponsoring job in the US (since it sounds like finances + never going back to the middle east are your top priorities). Tuck is also a feeder school for consulting, which might be a nice option for you (plus some firms will help pay for your tuition)

Hi bschooled7

I can understand your situation. I went through the same phase. Did my undergrad and entered the job market in 2009, and then did my masters from london and entered job market in 2012. Not so surprisingly actually worked for peanuts and with all these questions in mind still trying for American dream and going for MBA in US.

Some point in life we have to take that risk and take that leap of faith. That's what I am doing. Yes it will require hard work to get that job in US and sponsorship but that's what we are supposed to do.

Coming to your choices.. you can never go wrong with Tuck or stern if you want to work in USA post-MBA.
All the best for the choice you make.

Thank you for your advice! I feel confident about taking the step having read your responses on the thread. Out of curiosity, what do you mean when you say consulting firms may help with your tuition? My understanding from friends in consulting is that you have be employed with an MBB firm to be sponsored for your MBA.

Congrats for your schools. :)

If you are going to take loan, so you must aim for the best. I see you fit in Tuck and can achieve your dreams. As I was in contact with many alumni Tuck, I truly experienced what close knight mean to them with many examples. One of them is how they help each other to spread resume. The career office is truly supportive too.

Final note, I would avoid LBS as the uncertainty in Uk is very high.

I have sent you PM too.
