alexbr4 Verified User. Likes Earned: 1883 Tough choice, but I’d lean to Simon. Have you eliminated BC Carroll from consideration? (0)

jenny_1818 Likes Earned: 10 Hi Alex, thanks for your comment, could you kindly share a bit why you'd lean to Simon more? I tried to negotiate with BC, but they denied my scholarship appeal, I personally did not feel they are really supportive either towards internationals, that's why I eliminate BC. Would you think BC would be better than Simon? (0)

alexbr4 Verified User. Likes Earned: 1883 BC and Simon are in similar tiers, I’d think. BC just might be more appealing because of its location. In terms of why Simon over Fordham, I’d check the size of their full-time programs. Simon is likely larger, with more resources dedicated to the program, etc. being in the higher tier. (0)
