Houston Help!

by calical » Wed Sep 16, 2009 5:17 pm
Q:If I am looking to change careers can I not do that with a part-time program
My philosophy is that I want the degree (MBA) I just don't want to be broke trying to get it

Q: I am looking to stay in Houston after Grad school. Does it really matter if I go to a big name school if the local Universities have a good reputation? {EX Rice, University of Houston, Texas A&M, University of Texas} :wink: :shock:

Dear calical,

#1 - see my answer to your previous post.

#2 - if you want to be in Houston post-MBA, then you can do that from really any school in Texas. Rice and UH are particularly strong in Houston and well-connected, but the reputation and alumni networks of UT and Texas A&M are also helpful. Depending on what you want to do post-MBA, some schools are a better option than others in terms of curriculum and recognition. You have plenty of options in Texas, so you should find several schools that will meet your needs.

Good luck,
Lisa
