Thanks for your reply.. Does OSU have better career services? are both school of same reputation? I am confused because I am thinking it might be better to pay a bit more rather than being jobless for few more months or earning less.

> Fisher
Not necessarily better but you have full funding and that means better ROI, especially since both schools will deliver similar post MBA outcomes. Ranking is also the same. Would have suggested Olin if the funding were similar, cause Olin has a better brand, especially WashU as a university.

WashU Olin is any day better than Fisher. Fisher is a regional school. Also, before choosing MBA you need to consider the overall university ranking and where it fits for undergrad programs. WashU is top 10 undergraduate destination for most of the trades. It’s Med school considered top in US.

Thanks. You are indeed right that Olin is better option. But I think difference is not huge. It has just a slight edge in prestige. One should look and focus on the domain where one should go post-MBA. After deep analysis, I came to the conclusion that WashU is strong is finance and consulting. While in General management and operations Fisher is better option, not only in terms of salary but also in terms of percent of placements. As I am interested in general management and strategy, I think Fisher is better option for me.
