OP Likes Earned: 0 No I didn't get off the waitlist. I was admitted at both in Round 3 and paid deposit to both because I couldn't decide. (0)

OP Likes Earned: 0 I also got into WashU in Round 3 with scholarship, but I thought Tepper and McCombs were a tier above it. (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 I'm going to Tepper, so I am somewhat biased, but I would say Tepper given your interests, unless you want to end up in the southwest in which case Mccombs is the clear choice. I actually decided against applying to McCombs bc from employment report you can see aroundd 70% of grads end up in southwest (I'm from Texas and don't want to go back) (0)

Anon Likes Earned: 0 Tepper for sure based on geographic reach alone (0)
