Hello Everyone
I am quite confused with the B-School Selection at this point.
I have admit from University of Rochester with $46,000(Forte Fellow) and University of California - Irvine with $45,000(Faculty Fellow)
Univ of Rochester covers the remaining tuition fees with its Student Loan Program - which doesn't require any Co-Signer.
But for UCI, I have to take a loan from Indian Bank or Prodigy Finance, which looks like a promising option.
Again Cost of Living a an important factor.
I have limited source of money, and so I will go with the minimal investment. But, I don't want to compromise on quality of education and Career opportunity
Please suggest on which B-School I should go for???

Congrats on the admit. You would have to take a call based on their locations. East Coast would help you get in Finance, Digital Media, Media, Consulting kind of roles. West Coast is heavily Technology and Consulting. You should also look at the class size of both the programs and take a call based on your preference. Large class size means more diversity and also means that at the end of two years you might not know all of your batch-mates so well. Small class size allows for personal connections. You could look at the climate and have a preference for Sunny west-coast over chilly East Coast.
Finally, I would suggest to talk to as many alums of both the schools. I know a guy who went to UCI and cracked the coveted Amazon Ops program.
