Thank you teesmartgirl and rexman for your helpful insight. Both schools are recruited from several companies I am interesting in pursuing, and as rexman alluded, if I put in the extra effort I can have opportunities with companies cross country.

I do really like the idea of a tight knit community, and for that reason I am leaning slightly towards Kelley (NCAA sports is also a plus!). My plan at the moment is to attend both welcome weekends and see which future classmates I connect with better.

Thanks guys!

Hi all,

After a long admission season, I am happy to report that I have received admits from both the Kelley and Goizueta full time MBA programs. From the beginning I always thought that Kelley was my top school, I think in part because I didn’t think I could get into Emory. I am a career switcher attempting to break into brand or product management, and both schools have the ability to place me in great companies. I know that both schools are ranked almost dead even and are fairly regional, but location is not much of a factor for me. I have visited both schools and could see myself attending either one for the next two years of my life. At the moment I am leaning ever so slightly towards Kelley, because when I attended the preview day I was captivated by the confidence, collaborative nature, and overall friendliness of all of the students and faculty I met at the mixer. Emory University appears to have a marginally stronger prestige over Indiana University when mentioning their names to non-business people. Money is not a factor in my decision.

I would appreciate any and all input because I am at a stalemate right now.

Thanks!

Congrats.
Both schools are great but you need to think where you would like to live and work. One thing is not to miss in Kelley is the concept of 'Academy'. Kelley has good reputation in Midwest in CPG industry. Also Emory has good placement for marketing. You can review the recruiters for each school.

Wish you sccucess
