<p>kellog vs.UIC, roosevelt university
Hello...
I am a new member to this site. I came across this website when I was doing my research on MBA's.</p>

<p>Here is my situation:
I received my BBA from Loyola University Chicago in 2004. It is pretty expensive school. I did have financial aid and scholarships, but it wasnt enough to cover tuition for one year. So over four years I took out loans to pay the remaining balance of tuition. I ended up about 30K in debt.
However, since graduation I wasnt able to find a job in my field and ended up working in finance industry. I have pretty good experience, but I am not happy with my career right now. I have decided to get masters in accounting.
I have considered two major graduate schools in Chicago which are Kellogg graduate and University of Illinois graduate school of business. Kellogg has a degree I want to pursue which is joint JD/MBA while UIC doesnt have it (it has joint degrees, but not JD/MBA). If I go to NW it will take me 3 years to complete my degree or if I pursue it at UIC it will take less than 2 years. Plus. Kellogg tuition is way too expensive, while UIC tuition is very affordable.
Do you know someone who got degree in JD/MBA from Kellogg and what their opinion about that is? Are they happy with choice they made or do they regret it?
Any answer is welcome.</p>

Maybe you should see apply first to see which school(s) you get admitted to -- that can help you in deciding which one to matriculate to.</p>

<p>Hmmmm, good point, calicartel.</p>

<p>Note, however, that Kellogg's reputation as a business school is tippy top. If your get accepted there, that degree will be worth significantly more over time than U of Ill or Roosevelt.</p>
