Fisher dual MBA/MHA vs. Owen vs. Tepper vs. Kelley vs. Olin. [#permalink] New post   08 Dec 2017, 05:25
Looking to get into healthcare administration or consulting. Any insight into each of these programs would really help. I'm not worried about geographical location or $$.

Which do you think would be best for healthcare and why?

Given your choices, Owen, hands down.

FWIW, I wear my bias on my sleeve, but I think the numbers back this up.

These are all solid options, but if you just compare the MBA employment reports you'll see that:
Tepper sent 7% of their class into healthcare. https://tepper.cmu.edu/recruiters-and-c ... s/industry
Owen sent 23% of their class into healthcare. https://issuu.com/vanderbiltowen/docs/o ... emp-report
Kelley sent 13% of their class into healthcare. https://kelley.iu.edu/recruiters-compan ... dex.cshtml
Fisher doesn't list how many of its graduates went into healthcare. https://fisher.osu.edu/careers-recruiti ... tcome-data

I don't exactly know how the dual MBA/MHA changes the equation, but I'm really not convinced it will give you a leg up when recruiting, and if it costs more to do the double degree, I really don't know that it would be worth it.

Also, Nashville is HELLA better than Pittsburgh, Columbus, and the Indiana wilderness.

Good luck with the decision!

This is great! Thank you! Once all my admitted notifications come in, do you have questions to ask admissions that would provide further insight into the programs?

Right now I'm batting 1.000 with 2 unknowns so I'm feeling optimistic about the 2 unknowns.

Fisher - admitted w/ $
Owen - admitted w/ $
Kelley - admitted and waiting for the welcome packet to see about $
Olin - end of week decision
Tepper - end of week decision

Post script: Katz offered a large amount of $$ but I'm not convinced the program is strong enough.

Ask specifically about job placement in your desired function/industries.
What healthcare companies have hired students from X program in the last two years?
Where have students interned?

Ask to speak with students who are doing your desired tracks (presumably strategy/ops and/or healthcare).
Are there student ambassadors I can reach out to?

And wherever you decide to go, NEGOTIATE your offer. Show genuine interest in the program but be firm about pushing the needle in your favor. I would even use other offers as leverage.

Best of luck!

Congrats for all those great schools.

In addition to above, I advise you to ustilize LinkedIn and add people from different universities where you got admission and from the field that you like. Those are great resources about schools and opportunities and companies, all in same time.

Good Luck.
