The 7 Hardest Questions about B-school (Part 4)

May 19th, 2008 · No Comments

4) Why Tulane? What other schools were you considering and why did you, ultimately, decide on the Freeman School? What are the intangible qualities that you find make it the right fit for you?

4) Why Tulane? Honestly, I chose to go where I felt like I was getting the best deal. I got into two others schools and I also applied to my state school. In the end it was a combination of where I could get in and bang for buck. Tulane simply offered me the best deal. For those of you that have to decide by May 31st, I’d strongly recommend putting everything in an excel spreadsheet and just seeing where the deal is the best. Keep in mind that after you have the exact cost difference for your options… you’ll have to weigh the hard stuff: location, class size, and strength in your area of interest.

I would like to say that if you want to go into finance right now (the market is tough), but you’ll get an extraordinary deal with us here at Tulane. We just moved into the top ten on the Financial Times for Finance programs.

I thought Tulane had some unique value in that our class size is small, so you can meet our alums easily and network very well locally. And, finally, location… well, we’re light-years different from anyone else in that respect. I love it.
