Question: why do people go to Kellogg over Booth?

It seems like Booth has everything- more finance-focused, get to live in downtown vs the suburbs, flexible curriculum, also seems like they win everything vs Kellogg whenever I hear about it. I went to go visit and the vibe is that the social life seems better too. It seemed like Kellogg is good if you want to do marketing, but then I learned that Booth has the Kilts program.

No disrespect to, just genuinely curious.

I feel like it comes down to culture and fit. Booth is more quant Kellogg more poet.

Culture and community.

Booth's pick your own adventure (no core) makes it harder to develop friendships since your classmates will be different in each course.

And, Kellogg is an 'adults only' program. At Booth, undergrads and folks in the new MiM (pre-experience masters) will be in the same classes with those who have 5+ years of experience.

Omg mixing classes sounds terrible. Horrific.

just a prospect POV but Kellogg has a nicer building, the MBAi program is really interesting, like the culture a little more (just going off vibes visiting both), and I like the suburbs location tbh
