Villanova School of Business vs. Penn State Smeal

<p>Right now, I'm torn between depositing at VSB or Smeal. </p>

<p>I was accepted into Villanova's Global Citizens Program and will go to Singapore next spring if I go to Nova, but Nova is 50,000 a year.</p>

<p>Penn State has a much larger Alumni network, and great recruiting, and 100% job placement according to business week.</p>

<p>Nova has 16 Bloomberg terminals and is planning on adding more, and has smaller class sizes.</p>

<p>Penn State is 26,000 a year but it sounds a little isolated.</p>

<p>Villanova is closer to Phillie, so you can have internships during the school year.</p>

<p>Which one is more well known in the business world, which one is more worth it? I need some help deciding.</p>

<p>So villanova comes to 24K more, right?</p>

<p>From my perception it seems that nova business is higher ranked…businessweek ranks it higher than penn state. Nova #13 and psu #22…I would say go with villanova but considering it is almost double the cost of penn state then i would say strongly consider your options. If money is no concern then go with villanova. I am sure both have strong connections with philly employers so in that regards they seem to be a wash</p>
