Hey all,
I was recently accepted to Stern with a full tuition scholarship and Yale w/o scholarship. Awesome problem to have, I know, but I'm having a tough time deciding. I had really wanted to go to Yale throughout the application process because I got just such an amazing feel from their campus and interview experience, but I'm not sure that's worth forgoing a full ride (and a cool opportunity to spend a few years in the heart of NYC). Yale has this amazing brand name, but Stern with tuition covered sounds like an amazing experience (even with the high cost of living in NYC).
Context: I want to go into general management afterwards, planning to work in the northeast for the short & long term.
Any opinions?

Congratulations! Neither program is the wrong choice.
Sometimes a school is like a marriage - you are not marrying someone because of how much money they make or have (hopefully) but rather because you love them. At the same time, it is a 2-year marriage that you will be sharing with many other applicants and while you may not truly have had a love from first sight with Stern, going there will allow you to graduate debt free potentially or take a year off work and travel all over the place.
P.S. It is hard to recommend anything however, as I have no attachment you described to Yale, so it is a fairly clear choice to a completely non-invested party.

The money is tough to turn down but I would pick Yale. By far the best community of any campus I've visited. Plus, the team at Yale SOM aren't playing around and really making moves to cement itself as a top business school. By the time you graduate, I wouldn't be surprised if it passes schools like Tuck, Haas and CBS in the rankings.
