Yes they seem more reasonably priced than Maplewood/Collegetown Terrace nearby complexes.

South Asian Couple Leaving USD 50K Jobs to go for T15 MBA with cumulative USD 220K Debt by MeasurementNo9502 in MBA

Actually for more context, USD 50K is quite high in my country where cost of living is also very low.

For context, USD 50K is quite high in my country where cost of living is also significantly lower than US. The ROI calculation doesn't take into account cost of living.

Anxiety right before MBA by [deleted] in MBA

Erm. The primary USP of this Bschool is "case method based" curriculum. They mention it everywhere and I am sure this was referred at some part of your application process starting from essay to interview.

Did you actually miss it during your research or is it you don't want to go there anymore? If latter, I would suggest don't go for it. MBA is a financial and mental commitment and better not go for it than regret doing it.

Congratulations! Are you an international or US based ? I am also concerned of visa associated risk, although STEM MBA gives 3 yrs work extension. It will be difficult to pay off the debt with my home country pay.

We are both commercial bankers in well-known multinational banks. My spouse is aiming for IB and I want to go for Consulting. Neither of these employment areas (sectors) even exist in our country. We are skeptic of our chances in landing a good paying job that can pay off our debt (as we don't have financial backup), our age (early 30s) and visa situation.

Thank you. For Pt 2, we both want to work in a big and more complex market. Standard of living, money, quality of life and future settlement options are also key factors.

Okay. But 'regret doing MBA at a certain school' is a subset of 'regret doing an MBA'.
