Hi Everyone,
I got admits for Carlson MSBA and Fuqua MQM and I have to make a decision by Jan 5th. I tried making a pros and cons list but both of them are pretty comparable in everything. The differences I got were:
Carlson : Is in a big city and has better ranking and placement stats
Fuqua: Has a better reputation and has way better weather but many of the forums say it doesn't have good enough placement stats
Their cost and length of the program is the same. I checked the curriculum and it's almost the same, at least the track that I have chosen.
Location wise, I would say Both are situated around the same distance from major cities. Carlson is slightly closer to Indianapolis and then there's Chicago. Duke is slightly closer to Washington and then there's New York.
About past students performance, average mean salary for all is around 80-85k and 99-100% placement by 6th months.
I just feel Duke's alumni network is slightly better than Carlson's, but then I read 2-3 forums which said finding a job after Duke is tough.
Any inputs would help me out considerably.

Both programs will lead to the Business analytics career. If I were you, I would lean to the cheaper as I do not want to have a lot of burden and also It may give a room for future development when you decide to so an MBA or other degree or even get house......etc.
I assume Carlson is cheaper than Fuqua, if so I will go to Carlson.
