<p>sternie95, the advantages of getting an MBA for you in this case are time. While certainly, saving the $40,000 dollar tag may be on your mind, bear in mind, that you will take quite a bit more if you have work experience with your MBA.</p>
<p>If I were you, I would take it. Since, inactuality, you're saving $130,000 dollars, graduate schools average two years at 65k, you'd save quite a bit. That and graduating as a MBA Student from a top university, it will certainly help.</p>
<p>There are numerous companies that frown upon a five year MBA, for the reason, that they may feel that the MBA is "wasted" on an individual who has never worked and experienced the importance of what they learn, however, this is going to depend on what you wish to do. </p>
<p>Do you have any certain careers that you're looking specifically into?</p>
