I got admit in Rutgers and Umass Amherst both.
I get a minimal scholarship with Rutgers and a 2018 fall admission. With Umass i get complete two years scholarship but a confirmed admission in 2019 term.

Please pour in your suggestions and votes!


Go to UMASS.
You will be fine. Plus you will have a full ride and a stipend to go with that. Rutgers doesn't cut it.

I am not sure UMASS will be a great hit with the recruiters, but it is sure as hell better than RUTGERS.

The internship and recruitment is the only thing that i'am not sure about with UMASS also not much information is available over the same. Whereas, Rutgers on other hand offers strong internship and FT job opportunities.

I'am currently working in IT industry and I wish to pursue my MBA in Business Analytics. Yes I'am an international student, in the long run i wish to return back to my home country.


In terms on specialty, both schools have good business analytics in their curriculum. But I do not know if this consider any STEM program. You should know more about it.

I have a look in Rutgers and seems they have impressive recruitment 100% and best in nation according to its website:

https://www.business.rutgers.edu/full-ti ... t-outcomes

On the other hand, I did not find ant employment report or even career service portal for Umass. Although you have a good scholarship, I would not advice to take any move before any contact with adcom and reports to study it. The scholarship deserve to know more about Isenberg in order not to miss it.
