Olin v/s Boston University

by neosumit » Thu Dec 29, 2011 2:11 am
Hi,

I am in a bit of dilemma and hence seeking opinion from people expert in this area.
I am an International with a good GMAT (750) and 8+ years of professional experience in IT/Financial services firm.

I have a Dean's full tuition scholarship from Washington's Olin Business school.
Also Boston University has provided me an offer with 85 percent fee waiver.

Olin has had a topsy turvy year with regards to ranking - it's ranked 20 in US news 2011 rankings while BW ranks Olin (#41) below Boston Univ(# 38). But overall probably Olin has a better brand name.

I find that the city of Boston offer some advantages - few good consulting firms recruit from here which are on my target post-MBA.

Can you help me with this decision and offer me an insight so that I can decide on this!
On the positive side though - both schools are looking to improve their overall reputation and brand.
