<p>So I've been offered both HKUST and NUS both for their business schools.
Both have a scholarship attached. The HKUST scholarship covers the school fees with no bond while NUS scholarship covers school fees + stipend of around 6k sgd/year with a 3 year bond. Oh, and I got into a residential college program in NUS called the University Scholars Program.</p>
<p>I'm not sure which one to choose. Which school do you think would provide the better overall experience? And about the level of difficulty, I've been getting mixed responses so I really don't know which one would be easier and/or better recognized.</p>
<p>Any input and advice would be greatly appreciated, especially since I have to accept the offers very very soon. Thanks!</p>
<p>The B school at HKUST is widely considered the best in Asia. Given China’s rapidly growing economy and HK’s continuing role as its financial window to the world, i’d pick HKUST without any hesitation.</p>
<p>I believe it’s considered the best in Asia because of it’s MBA and EMBA programs. Regarding the undergrad programs, I hear both are about the same. Or are they not?</p>
<p>Any academic program is fundamentally determined by the quality of its faculty and students. The BBA courses at HKUST are taught by the same faculty (not grad students) as the MBA/EMBA courses, and the program has consistently attracted some of the best HS grads in HK and China. You figure out the rest.</p>
