Hello!
I am very, very fortunate to have been accepted to CBS with a full ride and to Wharton with a $120k scholarship. I work in education and plan to pursue a social impact role post-MBA. To my knowledge, neither school is very 'social impact'-focused, so I am not sure which program to pursue. Also, my CBS scholarship is through The Consortium, which opens up that network and the possibility to make internship contacts the summer before I start at business school. It's very attractive to me to have access to both CBS and The Consortium network, but I don't know if they are worth more than the Wharton network.
Any advice? I'd greatly appreciate it!
Thank you!

Hi venbiv,
Thanks for reaching out and congratulations! While neither school has a social impact/non-profit focus the way that a school like Yale SOM or Duke Fuqua does, both try to incorporate it and Wharton has done a number of things in the social impact realm lately (check out the Wharton Social Impact Initiative).
It's true that Wharton has a very strong network, with 100k alumni in 153 countries! That said, CBS and The Consortium, will provide great networking opportunities on campus and beyond as well.
Truthfully, it is hard to say what the right choice is for you without knowing more. While networking and your career goals should be a driving factor of this decision, there are other components to factor in as well. For instance, do you want to be in Philly or NYC? Which school's campus culture is more appealing to you? Whose course offerings are the best fit?
We have a blog on navigating multiple acceptance that you can check out for more guidance.
Best of luck and, again, congrats on your acceptances!
Regards,
Personal MBA Coach
