Is the difference in brand/reach worth the extra $$$ for Indiana's Kelley or UNC's Kenan-Flager, relative to a PSU or UF? For what it's worth, I'm in the education/non-profit sector and currently in Texas.

For me, it'll be $41k for UF, $60k for Penn State, $66k for Indiana, and about $100k for UNC.

Regarding my future, I will either (A) stay in a small non-profit like I'm currently in, helping underprivileged kids get to college in some capacity or (B) move to higher ed or educational policy. I love what I'm doing now, but I may aim to solve the same issues in a different realm (such as the others I just mentioned).

Either way, non-profit/governmental leadership is the simplest answer for you.

Congrats :-D

Although UF is good school, it is not on par with with Kelley and UNC education. The level of concentration and electives are far more divers in way that can help you in both schools. I will focus on Kelley how It can sere your goals:

1- Kelley has a big program called GLOBASE, in whihc you can partipcate in global real cases in different continues. It will help you widen you experience and exposure. You can do non-for-profit clients. Go to the link below.

2- You can enhance your leadership skill through second year Leadership academy. Look to the link below:

3- You may take further step in long term, if you think to explore Entrepreneurship. The Social Entrepreneurship will help you also.

4- As you want to solve problems. Think about politics. So you need to increase networking . Washington campus will be perfect to you:

5- As you will be in Bloomington, I believe that you find opportunities to patriarchate in real problems with any non-for-profit orgnization


Although I love UNC, I think Kelley serves your goals better.


Wish you success
