Kelley vs Olin vs Goizueta

Question

Hi Guys, I really need your help!

I'm admitted to all 3 and money factor is even.

I want to do tech or CPG marketing.

Kelley's employment report lists the most companies I'm interested in. Does this matter? Will employment opportunities be noticeably different at Kelley?

WHICH SHOULD I CHOOSE???

Emory and Kelley are probably close in a number of things. For CPG, Kelley tends to have more focus and more alums and clubs/classes focused on CPG and Marketing.

But in the grand scheme of things of what’s happening out there, it is hard to make a decisive recommendation.

If you are interested in CPG Marketing and the employment report with Kelley lists most companies you are interested in, I think it is evident that Kelley would be the best choice.

Unless there's a specific experience at another school, or you felt a strong personal connection to the students and professors at another school, I suspect Kelley is your best bet.

I believe that MBA is a one time thing and you should definitely focus on a strong brand

Since money is even, I would say go ahead with Emory. Bloomington is a small city similar to st louis and the oppurtunities may be limited. Atlanta is a very big city so more potential oppurtunities in the future

While "Kelley's employment report lists the most companies I'm interested in. Does this matter? Will employment opportunities be noticeably different at Kelley?" 
Companies recruit you because of the profile and not because of the school. The school just tends to have more opportunities in that domain

Hope this helps

Good luck at Emory

bb  Thanks for bringing this to my notice

FinanceMan · Answer

I'll strongly disagree that the school recruits the profile and not the school. If that were the case, then there would be no point in people going to Harvard, Wharton, Stanford, etc. Those people already have a strong profile. Why go to a top school? Because companies recruit the profile AND the school.

Kelley makes much more sense for you considering your post-MBA goals. Good luck.

Another vote for Kelley, except hat you want something in Emory more attractive such location, curriculum, way of teaching..etc . However, Kelley marketing academy and marketing professors are great.

Hatakekakashi · Answer

While that is true, not having a profile and being at harvard wouldn't get you your dream job. Of course you can fake it till you make it
