I am an Indian consultant, with education in Finance and experience in Consulting (mainly for financial institutions). I am looking to pivot into Sustainability Consulting.
While I am extremely happy with a Ross admit, I did not receive any scholarship in it.
Looking to work in US post MBA, but given my interest in Sustainability Consulting, I wanted to check which of these colleges do you think increase my chances to get into it. Would love to get votes based on your experiences. Thank you!

I would start out by saying that Canada presents probably the lowest return on investment compared to US or even Europe. That is upset by the ease of receiving residency in Canada that a number of people have said is much easier than the United States. Some people for unknown to me reasons seem to be very concerned, perhaps after reading a horror story or something like that and are scared of going to the US. Honestly, I think they should also be scared flying airplanes and seeing other people. There is a lot about self-confidence and how you feel. The part about self-confidence is that you may feel very confident when you make a certain decision but you will have to live with it and defend it and face consequences for months and years.
In the current economic environment in the United States, jobs are very plentiful and people are reporting getting multiple MBB’s offers from schools like Carlson. That is unheard of for few years ago. I do not know however that this is normal or this will last for two years…. But right now, anyone seems to be able to get a job from any business school. It does not mean it will be the exact job you want and that still requires a lot of work and a lot of effort. Google and Microsoft and Apple still have a very grueling recruiting experience. But secondary and Trisha airy tech companies are very competitive with their offers.
Specifically for consulting, and if you’re not looking to be in Bay Area or Seattle working for tech, I can see a case for Emory. Sustainability consulting is still a little squishy as far as I know. I could be wrong but my understanding is that a lot of people are feeling strongly about it and there’s more demand and supply of the jobs and so salaries are not hyper competitive which is the reason the scholarship may come in handy to offset some of that disparity with other jobs especially the kind of money tech is throwing at the graduates….
At the same time, if sustainability is hyper competitive, you may have to pursue Plan B or plan C… I would be evaluating your opportunities for those plans as well.
PS. I’m sorry for being dismissive of the Canadian market. It is significantly smaller and doesn’t put much value on the MBA unfortunately. In Canada, a lot of your compensation depends on your experience and so does the hiring. I don’t think that’s the wrong way to go and I can understand companies value and experience more than formal education but it makes it for crappy industry change options and ROI different…

Thank you bb. I have been hearing about the Canadian market.
While Ross is my best bet, the no scholarship part is really scaring me.
