hello, I know case western has a great reputation for engineering and med but I wanted to know people’s thoughts on cwru for undergrad business. is it worth It because it is super expensive for me?
for some context, i was admitted ea and it is about 25k more than my state flagship (rutgers) - as much as i like the school, i don’t know if it is worth paying that much for business. thoughts?
Where would the 25k come from? If you would need to take loans, then Rutgers If your family can afford Case Western, then Case: more comfortable and personal, easy to double major or change schools (“whole school” philosophy), cool city - all positives but not worth taking loans for.
If you won’t need loans then Case. The Thinkbox is a pretty cool opportunity if you can get involved. The new business school dean was a professor at my school when I was doing my MBA. He was an excellent teacher then and very accessible so I’m assuming the business school is in good hands. He has the right skills to lead. I really tried to get S20 to apply but he wanted warmer weather so he passed.
What aspect of Business are you doing? Mgt? Accounting? Economics?
Did you get directly admitted into the Rutgers Business School? With Case, it is a Single Door Admissions and you don’t have to be admitted into any subschool.
Did you get admitted to the New Brunswick campus?
How would you pay for that extra 25K x 4 years?
Do you want to end up in the NYC area when you graduate?
