Hey guys!
Yeah, deciding is tough. I’m looking more into programs with a strong international business focus. Heard good things about Wharton and Columbia. What factors are you guys considering most in your decision?
I am just looking for good placements and ROI,
I’m prioritizing the alumni network and job placement rates post-graduation. Also, considering the overall cost and location of the school. It is a big commitment afterall. Also the tuition fee is like , a lottt!!!
This too, UCM has a decent ROI, have you guys considered taht
I am more of an introvert , so it’s the university culture for me. I do not want a cutthroat competition. I’ve been attending virtual info sessions to get a feel for each school’s vibe.
I haven’t looked at this one specifically, but now I will!
It’s a cuttthroat competition everywhere. But UCM has a good international culture, I mean one of my seniors is studying there only. There are a lot of INdian students and diffwerent cultural fests n all.
I’m also looking into scholarship opportunities and financial aid options. Don’t want to drown in debt. Has anyone looked into smaller, less known programs that might offer better scholarships?
Hey everyone, thanks for the diverse insights! It’s awesome to get different perspectives. Definitely got some cool food for thought as I navigate this career shift. Appreciate the responses🙌
