Wharton vs. new Northwestern Kellogg Certificate program

<p>Any thoughts?</p>

<p>These 'versus' threads are overplayed. What exactly is your question?</p>

<p>how does the curriculum of the certificate program compare with that of Wharton's? </p>

<p>Is there any advantage over going to Wharton undergrad considering this program is certified by the renowned Kellogg school? </p>

<p>How do job recruiting on wall street compare for both of these?</p>

<p>considering that the first of these certificate programs is beginning in the fall, job recruiting information for program participants is sorta nonexistent right now, wouldn't you think?</p>

Are you saying that Kellogg is more renowned/prestigious than Wharton?</p>

<p>You better check again.</p>

<p>Is this some kind of joke?</p>

<p>Kellogg (both in b-school and cereal form) is swell, but it's no Wharton. Nothing is.</p>

<p>And nobody would accuse me of being a Wharton fanboy here....</p>

<p>magnetschool welcome back to the penn forum! we missed you man.</p>

<p>magnetschool welcome back. So have you got into Penn yet?</p>

<p>Wharton certificate programs are a load of bull. I would imagine the same for Kellogg. Now an MBA on the other hand...</p>

<p>"Kellogg (both in b-school and cereal form) is swell, but it's no Wharton. Nothing is."</p>

<p>I don't know. I think MBAs from several other schools (Harvard, Stanford, MIT, Northwestern, Chicago) would be just as good as one from Wharton.</p>

<p>a kellogg (or harvard, or sloan, or whatever well-respected school) mba is great.</p>

<p>but that's not what we're talking about here.</p>

<p>This I know. I was (clearly) talking about the "is swell, but it's no Wharton. Nothing is" statement.</p>

<p>^ That statement was referring to Wharton undergrad, which is universally recognized to be without peer.</p>

<p>yep, was actually replying to johnnyk's statement</p>

<p>but i like the idea of a kellogg (cereal) mba - informative and nutritious! nobody else can eat their diploma for breakfast...</p>

<p>ok, so would you say it's worth it?</p>

<p>say you were planning to apply as a transfer to Brown University, Northwestern [for the cert. programs in business], and Wharton</p>

<p>Brown has a relatively high transfer rate, but no business thing
NW has a high transfer rate and a business thing that you all are saying isn't really worth it
Wharton is just wharton</p>

<p>If you wanted to do i-banking in the future or hedge funds, would you choose NW or Brown?</p>

<p>hell i'd take Penn CAS over Brown and Northwestern if you know you want business in your future</p>
