Is Columbia EMBA worth it in terms of prestige, opportunities, RoI? It seems too easy to get in with 3-4 options for EMBA and their class profile, videos, and testimonies doesn’t seem competitive

I kinda agree. If you are looking for EMBA prog in NY area, I would suggest go for a class visit and consider Stern too. Also, won’t deny, but that feeling of “too easy to get into” will be there compared to a full time. Probably cos we see just the on side. Think from the other side of the tunnel - where one will be grilling during the course with a demanding job to earn the same credits, and things will look different
