<p>My daughter is accepted into these great undergrad business schools, honors. She got into highly selective honors program in UIUC business school, went through interviewing process, got merit aid. (We live in Chicago suburbs, U of I is our flagship, and is closest to home.) </p>

<p>Waitlisted in Wharton and Duke. </p>

<p>She is interested in business, primarily consulting/finance, but would like to try other options available in the undergrad business school and see what she might like better. Summer internships opportunities are important too. Planning to work after graduation. Not sure about graduate degree at this point.</p>

<p>Finances aren't an issue; fortunately, we allocated money for her undergrad education.</p>

<p>We've been going through pros and cons of each university, visited all of them this month, and need your help deciding! Greatly appreciate any input.</p>

<p>Heard Tepper is very quantitative and you may want your D to assess if that’s a plus or a minus for her. Sorry I only have limited knowledge of Tepper and don’t have any knowledge about the other two.</p>

<p>Go visit and see what feels like the best fit.</p>

<p>You would be nuts not to send her to Ross. It’s a top ten b-school, and the job opportunities blow the other two away.</p>

<p>(Admitted bias: I went there.)</p>
