Why are you confused if the second school is better ranked and is offering you more $? I understand if you are interested in finance and the second school is not known in the finance field.

Actually the conundrum is that though the other school is ranked above simon, I guess simon has a better overall rep.. but the fee difference of $40k is huge..

If your looking to get into finance then Simon has a strong finance program. That being said, the finance market is going down so expect a hard time landing a job.

Neely also has a decent finance program, and similar to Simon is situated in a smallish city. Up to you really, but I'd go with full tuition.

Goes without saying, but if you get into Owen, go for that
