Hi, I am hoping someone may be able to help me so I can decide if I should apply to graduate school now or later in life when I get more experience.
I am only starting my first real job out of college as a Revenue Tax Specialist for the states Department of Revenue. I am also a disabled veteran, I am fully functional and I am not disfigured (for your own information, whatever difference it may make). I graduated with a B.S. in Finance and a 3.4 GPA from a fairly good school. Also, I have done internships in financial planning and asset management.
I suppose my questions are the following:
Can I get into an MBA program with a good GMAT score now? or after 1, 2, 3 years of working this job? Do I need a better job and have to work it longer before I can be considered? I understand it depends on the particular school mostly, so let me consider ones in Chicago, since thats where I am, for example: University of Illinois is descent and is free since I am a Veteran on the other hand I would rather pay full-tuition to go to Northwestern or University of Chicago if I stand a chance in the near future. While DePaul, Loyola and ITT are better ranked then UIC I think I would take a hit in ranking for the fact it will be free for me. What do you guys think about my situation, or better yet, what would you do if you were me?
Any and all feedback are much appreciated and welcomed, thank you for reading.
