eliot Verified User. Likes Earned: 2014 Congratulations on your acceptances to both Haas and MIT Sloan. Both are great MBA programs with a strong track record of tech and venture capital career placement. Well done. You mentioned that you received a scholarship. Was this for Haas? How much is the scholarship?

Beyond the impact of a scholarship, do you have a preference based on geographic location? While both have global brands, MIT Sloan job placement is more east coast focused while Haas is more Bay Area focused.

I don’t have a preference of location, although long term I’m interested in Southern California which I know Haas does good with SF placement specifically. I also want to be sure to preserve optionality as I’m not 100% on my career goals, location etc! (0)

eliot Verified User. Likes Earned: 2014 Thanks for sharing that you have a $90k scholarship at Haas. Given the scholarship and your West Coast focus, it sounds like Haas is a great option for you. I do encourage you to talk with current students from both programs to help you make your final decision. Best of luck. (0)
