McGill (Desautels) MBA vs York (Schulich) MBA

Question

I got admission offer from both McGill and Schulich. After scholarship for me McGill is now $15k less expensive than York.

I am more inclined towards McGill due to small class, brand value and less $$$. But York is in Toronto also regarded as one of the top b schools of canada.

I am transitioning from the military and want to go into consulting.

What would you suggest?

Go to McGill, its a no brainer. There is no comparision between the 2 schools. If you want to study in Toronto, than consider Rotman instead. Given the comparision between the you mentioned, McGill is miles ahead (ranking, quality of cohort, placement, consulting and overall brand).

Why do you say it is miles ahead in consulting? Based on Mcgill's employment report they claim on 11% of grads go to consulting with an average salary of 88k. Schulich employment report says 15% of grads go into consulting with an average salary of 97k
