<p>I'm an MBA applicant for SUNY Binghamton and Ithaca College. I got accepted into the MBA program with Binghamton already.</p>
<p>Which program do you recommend? </p>
<p>I'm an international student who lives in Ithaca. The tricky thing is I have to commute by bus from Ithaca to Binghamton (if I go for Binghamton) since I cannot drive. Is it much worth to attend Binghamton in spite of the distance? Or is Ithaca's program as good as Binghamton's? </p>
<p>(Binghamton's MBA is a 2-year-program, while Ithaca's is an 1-year.)</p>
<p>Any advice is welcomed, since it's so hard for me to decide which school to attend with such little knowledge about schools as an international.
Thanks.</p>
<p>I am not familar with the School of Business at Ithaca College. I do know a lot about its neighbor - the Johnson School at Cornell. I strongly recommend that you take a look at their offering. </p>
<p>In addition to the cost of and duration of a program, I think you should pay attention to career development services. SUNY seems to have a clear edge on that column (looking at their websites). </p>
<p>Have you considered relocate to Binghamton (it is only about an hour drive away from Ithaca) should you choose to attend SUNY?</p>
<p>Well, thanks for your advice. The thing is I have to commute from Ithaca to Binghamton. Actually my husband's studying at Cornell, and I'm well aware of Johnson School. However, I cannot afford Johnson's expensive tuition, so I didn't apply for it. I'm currently looking forward to hearing about financial aid from Binghamton. I'm not sure my qualification (GMAT score : 650/5.5, CBT TOEFL : 287, Three year-work experience, etc.) is good enough to get any kind of scholarship. Please wish me good luck. Thanks again.</p>
