Hi all! Which MBA program is stronger and more reputable: Oxford, Cambridge or HEC Paris? I have offers from all three, with Cambridge and HEC Paris providing scholarships and costing roughly the same, both over $20,000 cheaper than Oxford. My post-graduation goal is to work in consulting or big tech. Any recommendations or insights you can share would be greatly appreciated :please:
Congratualtions @Formigalouco on all your successful admits! If you are planning to work in the USA it would be Oxford or Cambridge, HEC is not well known there comparatively but everyone has heard of Cambridge and Oxford! Please try to connect with some alumni to get some more insights and a fit check! Good luck : )

I’m thinking about applying for the Laidlaw scholarship, but I’m a bit worried. The application asks if I’ll still accept the offer if I don’t get the scholarship. They seem to pick candidates who otherwise cannot afford their MBA.

The scholarship would be a game changer for me because of the low exchange rate in my country. However, even if I don’t get it, I’m planning to take a loan to finance my MBA.

Does applying for the Laidlaw scholarship put my application at risk?
Hey @Eilah! Applying for the Laidlaw scholarship won’t put your application at risk if done honestly. Be transparent about your financial situation and show your genuine interest in the program, clearly state your financial need, explaining how the scholarship is essential due to the low exchange rate in your country, but also confirm your ability to finance the MBA through a loan if needed. This demonstrates both genuine need and commitment. All the best.

Thanks for your insights; they are very helpful! How would you compare Oxford and Cambridge? Is the former worth overpaying?

You’re welcome! You can choose (Oxbridge) any one whichever suits you best, taking a look at everything. As they both have a better shot at London / Dublin Big Tech recruiting. Amazon hires from both! But yes, talk to some people from both the schools and around the place first, compare the pros and cons and decide accordingly...

Maybe, looking at the previous timing of R2 results, it shall be out around 5-6pm IST. All the best everyone!
