Hi everyone,
I was fortunate enough to receive deferred acceptances to Kellogg w/ 20k scholarship and to CBS. I'd love to hear people's thoughts on which program I should accept given my goals and background.
My post-MBA goal at the moment is for MBB consulting (also open to T2 consulting) in New York City (though also open to other cities like D.C./S.F.). The long-term goal is to eventually move to the public sector. Though Kellogg has better MBB placement than Columbia, I've also heard that a lot of CBS grads take up the spots in New York City and other offices in the vicinity. Would it be substantially more difficult to break into NYC consulting if I were to go to Kellogg?
Not sure if this matters, but I plan to shoot my shot at HSW down the line as I did not apply this round for the deferred admissions program.

Not substantially difficult but it will be a little tricky given that the a great set of the Kellogg Alumni are in Chicago. Columbia and Stern dominate the NYC.
Also, since you want to be in the NYC, Best to be with the lion given that there is a certain natural bias towards "Their own people".
I hope this helps. Plus Columbia is an Ivy league and is pretty consistent in balanced placements. Kellogg seems to be a Marketing and Consulting focus.
If I had to choose I would go with the lion in this case

P.S. 20k scholarship is not that big a difference given that you're set on NYC
