<p>I got into an MBA program and received a partial scholarship. I put my $1000 deposit down last week and now I am having doubts. It is something I always wanted to do, but now the more I am thinking about it, the more I am concerned about taking two years off work and then being about $40-$50 grand in debt afterwards. The MBA program is a public one in the state of Pennsylvania. Average starting salary out of the program is around $70k. Now I am wondering if it would be best to go back part time or not go back at all and just try other things to help boost my career success. The payout in terms of MBA compensation is far more variable than in other fields such as law or health care.:(</p>
<p>I am currently going to U-Florida part time and my company is footing 100% of tuition and fees. I couldn't be moe happy. You should see if you can do something similar.</p>
