University of Michigan (Ross) or Johns Hopkins (Carey) : Onl [#permalink] New post  12 Feb 2021, 15:08
I have been admitted to online MBA in both schools and am struggling between Ross high ranking in MBA and JHU overall ranking. Which one shall I go? Any suggestions?

kwmba: Congrats on both acceptances! Go with Michigan Ross. The brand name will carry more weight.

Hello, kwmba, and congratulations. I agree that Ross is better known in the MBA circle; Carey is up and coming, but it has a lot of ground to gain. At the same time, have you visited both areas? Michigan and Maryland are two quite different places, as are Ann Arbor and Baltimore specifically. I know that looking at programs on paper can be exciting, but you want to make an informed decision about where you are going to live.

That said, good luck, whatever you decide.

Congratulations on securin admit to both the schools. Since its an Online MBA, the ranking and reputation of the school gets more weightage than other factors such as location. Ross is better ranked and has good reputation and hence better alumni network. Considering ranking of both the schools and also considering that delivery mode is Online, my choice of school is Ross - Go Blue!

All the best

Thanks Andrew. I am not in US and so cannot visit school.

They recently change online MBA concentrations, and so what I chose before is merged/combined with others. Their courses for full time and online are different, and so maybe faculties. I also heard some of their faculties are adjunct. Understand JHU is a big name, but not sure how much resources they will invest in MBA given that they are highly focusing on med and bio science.

Thanks

Yes, it appears as though I overlooked the keyword online in my original post. I agree with your point about JHU investing in the medical and biological sciences. A name only goes so far if it is not too connected to your field. If I were you, I would look into the programs more before making a final decision. In the meantime, at least in this forum, you have three votes for Ross.
