Hello Guys,
I am 28 with almost 6 years of Experience in TOP MNC's in India. I was looking for only one year MBA programs.
As US do not have many options in 1 year MBA
I applied to Emory, UoF, Simon , Purdue STEM, University of Texas at Dallas, KATZ one year Mba (I as not eligible to apply for Kellogg)
I got admits from Simon (40% schol), Katz (50%) , UTD (40%) and Purdue (10 % Scholarship).
So with final decision to make. I am listing some PROs and CONs of the schools
1. Simon - Good brand Name, good location near NYC , Strong Alumni network
Cons - Very Expensive , out of budget for me
, only 2nd one year MBA batch - not so good feedback from current students
2. Purdue - Good Brand name, Good location near Chicago , IL , Strong Alumn Network , Good for IT background - which is the biggest positive
Cons - Again Expensive , First STEM one year MBA batch , no placement stats for STEM , No Idea how industry will take this course, 1/3 of the class are indians roughly 10 out of 30 more competition,
3. Katz -- Ok brand name , Good location , Lum strong
Cons - Not so confident with placements, CMC centre is bad talked to current students
4. UTD - Great location , Weather , 3 months Internship, International student trip , great scholarship and economical
Cons - More competition from other bschools in same city and not so great placement record.
PLease pour in with suggestions I have to make decision in one week.
What other factors shall I look in for making final decision.
Thanks in advance for suggestions
