Notes:

Full rides to both (also W/L at Tuck and Ross, but need to put a deposit down now. From Missouri and ideal to work close to MO in future. My instinct is CM name is still good in Missouri, but minimal alumni network. Also giving up at least 2 years away from friends/family. CM higher ranked, especially in POM and Tech which are my interests. Help!

But if you know you want to remain in MO, and Olin has a strong network in your region, then that is compelling, despite them being in a tier or two lower. Not a straightforward decision. A little more clarity on your post MBA goals may help.

eliot Verified User. Likes Earned: 1857 Congrats on your full rides to both Olin and Tepper. A lot depends on your career goals and where you want to work long term. If you want to settle near St Louis or even in Chicago, then Olin would be a good option. If you want a more national network, then Tepper would likely provide more options. (0)
