Hi everyone!
I have admits from both UNC- kenan Flagler and Simon business school. I have 50% scholorship from Simon but no scholorship from UNC. I am an international student and would be taking a student loan to pay for my MBA.
Post MBA goal- Consulting/Product Marketing.
What would you suggest? Is it worth paying 70k$ extra for UNC?
Thanks,
Shreya

Would you would be paying extra for is potentially additional exposure to consulting recruiters, consulting club, larger student body and a little bit more prestige.
I think the best answer to this is about your chances of getting into the consulting space. You’re going to pay more money at UNC for better chances. There’s no guarantee, just better chances. However if you can’t use those chances, then not worth much.
At the same time, if you’re uncertain about your chances, then you may as well not borrow $70,000.

Hi bb,
Thank you so much for your inputs. I really appreciate it.
Let me give you a lil more context and the confusion that I have in my mind.
1. I have applied to both the colleges with a gmat waiver. So is consulting an option for me- I have heard that consulting companies need a gmat score as a requirement (I have gmat score but not close to what these companies need). Is this true? Or is it true just for MBB?
2. My second option is a product marketing/product role. After talking to ppl at Simon I believe this has become a popular option for people at Simon. I am unable to gauge where UNC stands on this. Does unc does a better job for this role or simon? (equal or better?)
3.Talking to the people at Simon, its a popular opinion that Simon is not a target school for a lot of companies. So does the recruitment at Simon become much harder than at UNC? Or negligible? Also companies coming to the campus in both the schools- is there a lot of difference or negligible?
4. Is the brand value of UNC much better than that of Simon or is it negligible. Will it make a difference in both longer and shorter run? (Also is it worth the additional money that I will be paying at UNC- I will be taking a student loan)
5. Are the clubs at Simon as active as the clubs at UNC? (In addition would like to about the consulting and marketing clubs at both the college?)
6. Overall people and experience at Simon v/s KF
I would love to hear your thoughts on this. Thank you so much in advance. Means a lot!
