Full Ride or Some Debt

by tfa2014 » Fri Mar 02, 2012 10:37 am
I am interested in strategy and innovation management. I have been accepted to University of Iowa on a full ride scholarship. I have also been accepted to IU Kelley with what comes to be about a 2/3 scholarship (which means I would graduate with about 30k of debt). I am wondering if you feel like IU in the long run is a better decision and "brand" than Iowa. I know not to put too much ranking emphasis on rankings, and IU has slipped the past two years. But, IU grads typically make 92k per year out of MBA while Iowa makes 82k. Thought?!

Go with Kelley. If the 10 K per year isnt enough, basically Kelley has a brand name, and Iowa doesn't, slips in rankings regardless.
