If I decide to go to graduate school with MBA, specialized one (MS business analytics), Saint’s Mary college of California and CSU East Bay are the options to choose. The programs are new to them because they created it this year.
I would choose CSUEB because cost is very cheaper than SMC, but if SMC has better system or better life than CSUEB, I wouldn’t care about cost.
Anyone please recommend me which one is good to go?
Is this the St Mary in Nor Cal because there is one in Southern Cal also.
The St Mary is in North California. Not the one in Southern California.
Apply for both but choose the one where the total cost of attending (including living expenses, transportation and books) will cost you the least.
The Bay Area is costly, and housing can very tight.
Does St. Mary’s have graduate housing?
If not, the commute to their very lovely campus in Moraga means that you’ll likely need
to own a car on top of other expenses.
Is there one in Southern Calif? @DrGoogle Do you mean Mount St Mary’s? If so, I think it’s all women, isn’t it? Or is there another one?

How are you paying? Are your parents paying? If not, do you have the funds?
The MBA from St. Mary’s is probably a little better (my wife has her MBA from St. Mary’s) but it’s not worth the extra cost. Go with CSUEB.
There are lots of other solid MBA programs in N Cal and several others in the Bay Area. Why these 2 schools?
