Do MBB firms only sponsor your mba for specific schools (e.g, top 15)? Or if I got into NYU or UCLA they’d sponsor me too?

For OW it’s specific schools (top 15 or so) but I’m not confident I can get in since I had a really low undergrad gpa (<3.5 in liberal arts)

NYU is top 10ish unlike UCLA.

Hey everyone! I’m struggling to decide whether I should pursue a full time MBA or a Part Time MBA. Truly, what scares me about a full time one is the fact that I won’t work for two years. I know it’s a big investment and I’ll be rewarded for ir later on, but the thought of it still scares me. I would love to get someone’s thoughts on this! Is the experience very different? Will I be exhausted if I do the part time? Is there something I’m not considering when it comes to the Full Time?
