Hey Guys,

I have an admit from both Ryerson and Degroote (Co-op). I have the pros and cons for the both the schools, but i need a second opinion to be ultra sure whether my decision is right or wrong.

Ryerson :
Pros
- Fees ($40k)
- Prime location
- Great recent reviews from alumni and current students in terms of jobs and salaries.

Cons:
-Comparatively a young MBA school (10-11 years old)
-University's reputation is less than mcmaster's

Degroote:

Pros
-Co-op : 12 months paid internship. Might get a chance to get a full time job within the mba.
-$5000 scholarship. Not a big amount, but still this shows that I am good fit for the school.
-Living expenses will be cheaper

Cons
- THE BIGGEST ISSUE: FEES ($85-90K for 28 months). Which is around 45 lakhs INR. Too much.
- Location : Not many companies come there or are located there. Might need to move to some other place after MBA.
- Mainly a finance oriented school (which is not my field/interest)

For now, I have decided to go to Ryerson because of various factors and decisions.
Need to know whether the decision is right, or should i change my decision.

A little heads up : I come for a marketing/operations background with a 2.5 years of work ex.
I am looking for a career either in Consulting or Marketing (Branding).

Please help me by giving your opinions.

Thanks in advance :)
