选校求助 Kellogg (with $90k) vs. MIT Sloan (w/o scholarship)

piyeye

本人女，28, 美本，３年healthcare VC (Bay Area), 2年biotech marketing/strategy经验 (Shanghai and Bay Area, manager level), 毕业后想去management consulting/product management (healthcare or IT), long-term想创业/做VC。Round 1申请了５所，rejected by H/S/W, In@ Kellogg (with $90k) and MIT Sloan (w/o scholarship)

想听听各位真诚的意见应该如何选择。非常感谢！

补充：也申请了Tuck EA, 录取没有奖学金，虽然Tuck也很心仪，但是因为本科学校类似，想去个大点的学校所以准备不去了。如果你被Tuck waitlist了请联系我，也许我可以帮到。

Added on Jan 2, 2014:

My understanding is that the both schools are big on collaboration, are equal in ranking, and have almost equal alumni presence in Bay Area (where my boyfriend is). And I'm trying not cloud my judgement with the undeniably very generous scholarship offered by Kellogg (almost equal to $130k pre-tax income). My own thoughts:

Kellogg:
pros: More well-rounded and esp. strong in general management (which opens door to almost any career options other than maybe finance), larger and more engaged alumni network, looks more fun and stylish..
cons: weaker in finance (given my long-term goal to go back to investment), weaker on the analytical/quantitative side

MIT Sloan:
pros: stronger parent institution (more likely to meet potential business partners from engineering schools, for example), stronger in tech/biotech entrepreneurship, Boston!
cons: weaker in areas outside of tech entrepreneurship...weaker training on soft skills (that's just my initial impression but I could be totally wrong..)

I will visit both schools in February and would really appreciate more of your input in the meantime (esp. if you are a current student/alum of either school). Thanks!!

lz这么优秀的经历，能说下为何面试后会被H/S/W拒了么？lz的英语应该也很好，想不出他们不收你的理由。。。

Kellogg 90K? 还想啥啊这价钱只有H和S还有可能拼一下。。。

$90K....！！！！钱是硬道理。。。尤其美国的税后工资这么低。。。

谢谢各位的高见。我最后选择了Kellogg。金钱的力量是巨大的。另外，Kellogg的network很大也很适合我，也纠结过K校parent institution的名气和在创业圈子和金融行业的相对弱势，但最后我想除非是HBS/Stanford，其他学校都会有这样那样的不足。希望不会后悔啊！

再次感谢大家！
