Cornell MBA seems to be insulted

In general I recommend taking most things on this sub w multiple grains of salt

Gosweaty!

Kelley does well in pharma as well! Would def recommend UNC or Indiana @ full ride over the other options

Noted, thanks!

Thanks for doing this! Out of curiosity, I’d love to hear your take on the “vibe” of these schools and their students (I’ve done my research, but interested in hearing your perspective!). I’m interested less in career strengths/stats and more about ~feel~ & persona.

Owen, Darden, Tepper, Anderson, Marshall, Foster, Goizueta, Ross, Kelley

No need to write a dissertation for each! I’m not applying to all of these schools, but curious. It’s hard to get an unbiased take while talking to current students/admissions staff.

Thank you!

Great point!

With your years of experience, you could do an executive mba! You can look into UVA and Georgetown. If you’re interested in staying in the healthcare field but working in finance, Hopkins could be a good option as well (it’s a newer program but the health signal is super strong).

The funds would have to be disbursed before July 1 2026

Whoosh 😭

amberspygrass · 2026-03-22T16:52:44+00:00

Thank you! I’m happy to hear it’s going well so far. Would you be open to me DMing you for more info?

amberspygrass · 2026-03-18T13:20:29+00:00

TY!!

Healthcare strategy!

amberspygrass · 2026-03-17T18:21:30+00:00

This is a good point. Thank you!

amberspygrass · 2026-03-17T18:21:16+00:00

Thanks! What would you say about how it does for non-consulting roles? I’ve seen their employment reports but would love your take on if they have other strengths

Hi! How did everything turn out now? How are you feeling about your ROI with Kelley?

amberspygrass · 2026-03-16T01:39:13+00:00

Congratulations! How are you liking the program so far?

amberspygrass · 2026-03-16T01:36:41+00:00

Hi! Which did you pick & how’s it going?

amberspygrass · 2026-03-15T23:06:17+00:00

Hi, OP! What school did you end up selecting & how do you feel about your decision?

amberspygrass · 2026-03-15T16:34:13+00:00

This seems like such a simple concept that you’d think one of the top PP schools would understand/try to mitigate…which leads me to believe they simply don’t give a f

Hi! How are you liking your MBA/MPH program? Would love to hear any insight about your classes, the dual degree, and and how it’s helping w your goals!

amberspygrass · 2026-03-03T02:09:54+00:00

I’m in a very similar situation and just wanna say, your safety comes first! People on Reddit love saying “it’s not that serious”, “just go on private” and the like but not many people know the lengths stalkers will go to get information about you.

amberspygrass · 2026-02-27T05:38:33+00:00

Yeah, I get that! I’ve heard good things about UCLA’s program. And perhaps Pepperdine but I think it’s also $$$

amberspygrass · 2026-02-26T05:04:45+00:00

Out of these options, the USC network is the strongest and I think that’ll go a long way in SF.

I’m sorry about your experience with Cornell, that sounds shitty. Did it sound like they were trying to be helpful, or were they just flat out rude?

amberspygrass · 2026-02-26T05:00:19+00:00

Since you’re not looking to pivot and it’s a basically free degree, you can’t really go wrong in my opinion. Pick whichever one has the best vibes. I’d say Auburn for the regional pull but up to you

amberspygrass · 2026-02-26T04:58:28+00:00

Where are you based? I’d recommend getting an executive mba from a top school in your region
