Duke is pretty flexible with scholarship reconsiderations. If you can bump them up to 100k+, I think they're an easy choice. If not, I'm not sure how good Johnson is for MBB/FAANG so I'd probably choose CBS.

Email the adcom who called you asking how you can request a scholarship increase. They'll send you a link to a portal that's specifically for scholarship reconsiderations. In that form, you'll full out a couple of details including a section for offers from other schools. It's a standardized process and took 2-3 weeks for me.

Also want to end up in NYC after school, don’t think that’s a huge factor except for Fuqua

Duke. They have plenty of MBB. Although longer term, CBS might have a better brand name/network if you decide to stay in NYC?

Atlanta

First off, congratulations! I think both MBB and FAANG are reachable groups with solid networking (especially tech - have even seen folks from Ross get great PM offers) so it just depends on how you value investment into the degree and overall experience. Good luck!

Thank you! I feel incredibly fortunate but also super stressed about this decision haha

Had my annual review Friday (first year with the company).

Nobody under me has gotten less than a 7% raise in the past year. Considering promotions + counter offers as well, it goes as high as 25%. I don’t feel a 3% raise matches a “90% positive” review and plan to bring up the cognitive dissonance I’m feeling. Any other tips or advice to add?
