Can I use my MBA loan to pay for my monthly condo mortgage? Probably heading to Georgetown and want to buy a condo in northern va area. Would just pay mortgage instead of rent using the MBA loan $

I can see that. It's definitely one of the more social MBA programs, and unfortunately a lot of that revolves around alcohol. As an alum though I can say I've had plenty of close friends who chose not to go out all the time and really had an amazing experience....although being an outdoorsy foodie helps.

But to answer your original question. Yes, no one cares what you do with your loans so long as you signed your forms.

Georgetown is a good school with a good network. Just make sure the places you'd like to work actively recruit from there.

Idk your future goals OP but make sure McDonough gives you a path there because it doesn't have the same namebrand and prestige as top 15 and with a job at DD, I think you have a great shot at top 15

Pwc, Deloitte, Bain, and BCG all recruit from MSB. This whole top 15 shit is just elitism. Globally GU has a good brand, with a big network. D.C. Life > Cville life. Yes Darden is a better ranked school but placement isn't all that different.

Not really OP tbh. The top 15 would literally end at number 15 on US News namely UCLA. I am applying now and the lowest ranked school I'm applying to is Darden but then again if UNC gets you where you want to go then by all means go for it

Non-Target school doesn't mean that they don't recruit. They were on campus several times while I was there.
