Hi guys, I was admitted into Babson, UW and UCSB. I love entrepreneurship and that is my main focus. But is Babson that much better than the other schools? Is it worth the small student body, bad weather… etc.
Definitely go where you think you’ll be happiest and the community that’s the best fit for you. Are you interested in tech entrepreneurship by chance? In which case I’d say UCSB and their Technology Management program for entrepreneurs. Otherwise, you can’t go wrong with UW either.

Hey Guys, I am a current undergraduate at UC Irvine. I am sruding Business Admin here. I applied for a transfer to Babson College and got accepted. But the only issue is at UC Irvine, I was granted a lot of credits from my high school and a lot of basic requirements were waived off. But here in Babson they are not accepting my high school credits and not even full credits of UC Irvine’s freshman year as UC Irvine is a quarter system. If I go to Babson, I will approximately start from first year. While my UC Irvine degree with the aid of credits is only 3 years in total, and I am already done with one.
I really love entrepreneurship, but please suggest is it worth spending 4 more years (total 5 including the one at UCI) and $280K in tution to go to Babson, or to just complete my BA here in UCI as Business Admin. I plan to open up my own business and tha’s why Babson was my dream school. But please tell is it worth doing this much?
My tution at Babson is 70K per year while 50K per year in UC Irvine as I’m out of state.
Babson:
4 more years (graduate in 2020)
pay 280K more (total 330K including UC Irvine’s one year tution)
UC Irvine
2 more years (graduate in 2018)
pay 100K more (total 150K: 3 years tution)
Please guide me is Babson really worth it?
