How much more scholarship money at Tuck would it take for you to turn down Booth? Why?

Assume:

-Post-MBA target: MBB with eventual PE/VC dreams

-The Tuck remote location/culture is not a deterrent

Tuck and Booth are good for MBB. Booth is strong in PE/VC, but unsure how Tuck compares there

like

If the delta was $100K or more, I would take Tuck. If it’s $100k-$80k then that’s tough. If it’s less than $80k, Booth.

Interest rates are low af and over 10 years, $80K isn’t much compared to having regrets

Tuck would get you into MBB. If you like it, and the cost is the same, go there.

Thanks Bain 1!

Anyone go from MBB/T2 to MBA school and do something OTHER than return to consulting / go for high finance? Curious what your return on making that decision is and if it’s ever worth going if you’re already in consulting. Seems like most non-Consulting or IB jobs you could just skip the MBA.
