Hello!
I was accepted into both Questrom ($40K/yr) and McDonough (no scholarship). I work in tech operations in Boston and want to be in the area post-graduation. Ideally, I'd like to do consulting (non-MBB) or business development, eventually moving into BD at a tech company.
I do have a strong preference for staying in Boston for school for family reasons. The BU money is nice but doesn't sway my decision greatly. However, the disparity between average starting salaries does give me pause. G'town is also ranked much higher. Considering my career goals and geographic preference, any thoughts or insights into this decision would be greatly appreciated!
