<p>Can anyone help me decide?</p>
<p>Stern:
+In the city
+Great finance program
+Got a 15k scholarship
-Will still cost 40k a year
-No campus</p>
<p>UVA:
+Second only to Wharton (I don't care what the latest rankings say)
+Have to wait till junior year to learn relevant material (miss internship opps during first two?)
+Hate the campus</p>
<p>MSB (Georgetown):
+Near home
+Great program as well
-Expensive
-Not as recognized as Stern?</p>
<p>Are you a Virginia resident? Dead set on studying finance? I am leaning toward UVA here</p>
<p>Stern doesn’t have a campus but you have a city, so in that sense it could be better. You’ll meet people, don’t worry about that.</p>
<p>UVA is definitely not second only to Wharton. Top 10? Yes. 2nd? No.
Also, even though the “business” portion of the program starts after 2 years, that shouldn’t preclude you from internships. Other kids at liberal arts colleges do business internships all the time, so you don’t HAVE to have a business major.</p>
<p>I think MSB is well recognized. Perhaps not as well for finance, but I think believe it is more well rounded than Stern (which is mostly finance). If you want to do marketing, consulting, management investigate more into MSB.</p>
<p>Business Week is crazy, UVA is not #2 by any means.</p>
<p>I think Stern is the way to go if you can pay for it</p>
<p>What’s your career goal?</p>
