<p>Hey guys, I have been accepted to both business schools for this upcoming fall.
I live in NJ so i will be receiving an instate tuition for Rutgers NB.
However, I really like Penn State overall.
Is the Smeal program worth the extra 15k a year? (25k vs 40k) My parents are willing to afford up to 30k. (id be taking out loans if I attend penn state) i might even move later to PA for the instate tuition.
Hypothetically speaking that I get no financial aid from both schools.
I know that US news ranks Penn State (37) and Rutgers (69) and smeal is also ranked a lot higher than the Rutgers Business. But eventually they are both state schools and I am not sure if it will make a big difference for applying for entry level jobs.
Oh and I will be either majoring in Accounting or Finance. Maybe even Actuarial Science if I go to Smeal. And I will most likely be living in the tri state area after my college graduation. possibly in philly or NYC.</p>
<p>Any thoughts?</p>
