grichmond Verified User. Likes Earned: 1152 I agree with Alex - Standord with what looks to be full tuition+ is going to be hard to pass up. Hard to say if HBS will match that level of aid, but certainly can't hurt to give it a shot. Given the great position you are in, you should investigate how some of these schools (presumably Stanford, HBS, perhaps Wharton) do in the domain of family business, and specifically in the domain/industry you will be working. Best of luck as you move forward in this process! (0)

HBS is need based and doesn't have an equivalent fellowship so I'd take your win and enjoy Palo Alto! P.S. I'd connect with the African student groups at GSB, Judge, and Wharton to get a sense of community. (0)
