Hi all,
I have a bit of a dilemma here. I am currently working for a high profile investment bank as an analyst, but I have been offered a high paying job near UCLA at a much lower profile financial group. At the same time, I got accepted to the full time MBA program at Tepper. I also got accepted to Paul Merage and waitlisted to USC but I figured you guys would tell me to go to Tepper over Paul Merage.
Would you rather...
1. Take the higher paying job at the lower tier firm and go to the FEMBA program at UCLA. Effectively lowering the cost of my MBA since I would still be working.
2. Stay at my current job and attend Tepper in the fall. Obviously the most expensive option since Tepper is not cheap and I would be at a lower paying job in the mean time.
3. Take the higher paying job and leave after 4-5 months and go to Tepper
My goal with an MBA is to transition out of traditional finance and merge the gap between technology and business. Whether this is in VC or as a product manager. Entrepreneurship is always an option as well.
I would appreciate any and all thoughts!
Thanks!
