Notes:

Goal is to be in NYC post-MBA, working in brand management/product strategy at a global firm in CPG/retail. CBS/NYU not giving any scholarship may limit me from wanting to travel or take advantage of other paid offerings like treks or conferences. But, I wouldn't have to worry about COL in NYC since I have family there.
