I chose Sloan over Booth & Kellogg due to the international brand reputation (non-US citizen)

No one in my country has heard of either of the three but people know MIT.

However, all three are great schools

like

At this point, I’m considering MIT only for that global recognition, which seems like an impersonal reason cuz I love Booth’s curriculum and the prospect of living in Chicago for 2+ years

like

Booth is much stronger in the US market place, and I think academically is perhaps the strongest program besides Stanford

I’m in the same boat and would rather go to Sloan, though I’m down to Sloan and another school and have already eliminated booth even though they gave me more $$. Can’t go wrong either way!

like

Personal preference, I love the east coast and sloan places better/more than booth (mix of Midwest, west and east). I also find the MIT brand a lot stronger globally

like

Was admitted to to Sloan, booth and Wharton deferred admit and declined booth (with $$) + Wharton for Sloan because I live in a country where no one has heard of Uchicago/even Upenn is very marginally recognised.

Probably going to reapply H/S because was rejected during deferred

I’m a bit biased, but Booth! Feel free to dm if you have questions about Booth :)

I’m in this exact same position!!

ME TOO!

IMO Sloan if you’re hardcore entrepreneur, Booth for everything else
