Which to go for!? Washington (Olin)? Rice (Jones)? Indiana (Kelley)?

carlotin

got some direction already but y not ask for ur opinions!?

Washington - Olin (love WUSTL's reputation and academic quality, but it's mid-West and no $$$)
Indiana - Kelley (no doubt abt the teaching quality and reputation, but same problem as Olin's)
Rice - Jones (love the location, climate, campus, with $$$ but reputation and history are not as greater as the above 2)

so...??? ur opinion is much appreciated!

Did you get full-scholarship from Olin or Rice?
I would choose Kelley even if the $ is significant. Kelley will open more doors for you.

nope, just little $$$ from Rice but nth from the other two.

Indiana's location isn't that great but the program has solid reputation.  It is the only top 20 school on this list.  However, you will have a hard time adjusting to Indiana.  The college is nice but it not the easiest to adapt for a Chinese student.  The school is very white.

Rice has a much better location... it is warmer (well, very hot during the summer).  Houston has good access to energy companies.  It also had many Chinese businesses (restaurants, supermarkets, etc).

Rice has better reputation as a school but Indiana has a better business school.
