Half ride at both Anderson and Tepper. Coming from a Big 4 analytics consulting background and hoping to recruit in Tech for a PM/Strategy role. Pittsburgh is my hometown and where my entire family still lives, so I have some personal bias there. I'm not sure if I want to live in California after school, which almost seems like a given if you look at the Anderson recruitment data (but I could end up loving it, so I'm just undecided on that). No scholarship at Ross.

Congratulations!
If you are thinking about PM/Tech, I would recommend researching what employers, positions, departments, technology, area you want to be pursuing. The more research you can do before the school madness starts, the better. It will save time later and will also help you make some of the decisions.....
I like Tepper as a choice since you do have have a local network and support - that is valuable. Tepper to hang around much though, looking at the placements a fair number goes west.
Ross would be best of course but no scholarship.... I would read a few of the Ross and Anderson topics to get to know the general feedback about the two schools:
Ross: https://gmatclub.com/forum/search.php?s ... tag_id=449
Anderson: https://gmatclub.com/forum/search.php?s ... tag_id=365
P.S. I voted for Tepper as a nice balance between scholarship, recruiting potential, and local network.

Hi All - Wanted to provide a brief update since making the decision to ultimately attend Anderson. I have 0 regrets about my choice. Anderson has been a wonderful experience thus far, and although it's tough to truly evaluate the program without knowing what the full in-person experience is like, I have been pretty blown away by Anderson's pivot to this temporary environment and (more importantly) its ability to work with the students on shaping the experience as we go and incorporate feedback on what's working/not working during these times. I know that many of you won't have this issue next year when we are (knock on wood) back to normal, but being in LA and having access to many outdoor activities has been a blessing in the past 3-4 months.
Looking back, I believe the decision to choose against Ross and Tepper was the right one -- for me. You can get so sucked into reading forum posts on this site and others about which school is better, etc. ...but at the end of the day, if you know what you want out of b-school and there's an opportunity to save 10s of thousands by attending a school like Anderson instead of Ross or Tepper, it's just not worth putting that much more of a financial burden on your future self. If your goal is to work at Amazon, and you can get there by attending a school like Andrson AND save 60-70k, do it. In 2-3 years no one is going to care about where you went to business school if you now have an MBA and Amazon on your resume. At that point, you'll have to ask yourself, "was is it worth 70k plus interest to have this brand on my resume?"
