Regional PT or T25 FT ?
Currently working in Philadelphia. Applied to Rutgers and Fordham FT MBA programs. Got a full ride to Rutgers and a great scholarship for Fordham. Rejecting both for now, seem like signals to aim higher?
I am on the fence between:
Doing Villanova’s PT Fast-Track MBA 2027-2029 while I keep my current role. Either level up internally or pivot once my degree is done.
OR
Applying to T25 FT programs for 2027. (NYU, Georgetown, Tepper, Darden, Cornell, Vanderbuilt, etc.)
I’m nervous about recruiting constraints for internships and full-time offers post graduation. Any advice to my situation or recommendations? I am unsure if my current trajectory
