Advice to shortlist B-school

[bedazzled]

Hi Friends,

From last couple of months I am trying to figure out colleges that lie in mid-600s and cost me around $25-$40 in total. My interest area is marketing, that I'll figure out lately after getting admission into the schools. First thing first. So, I've selected some colleges. I'll be really delighted if you all can suggest me more about these colleges so I can shortlist from them.

Iowa(Tippie):- preferred choice
Iowa state university
Michigan Broad
Carlson School of Management( Minnesota)
William & Mary
Maryland Smith
Penn State (Smeal):- 2nd choice
Wisconsin( Madison school of business)

And please feel free to advise other suitable college which will fit my criteria. And provide work-experience limit for the colleges(listed + advised).

Hi bedazzled,

Here are a couple questions that could help narrow our schools:

1) Where do you want to live/work during and after your MBA?
2) Do you have any target companies you would like to work for?
3) Have you reached out to any students at any of these schools to discuss the students experiences, recruiting, class environment, etc...?
4) Have you looked at course catalogs for these schools? If not, you should to see which schools have the classes that are appealing to you.
