以下是引用luyiut在2004-3-22 6:49:00的发言:
rice has very good reputation in South, specially in Texas. That's true. But it is a local school. don't tell me something like "harvard of South". your target job market    may be around this area.



if you spend 1,000,000 rmb on this school without better chance for a job, rethink its ROI. IF you has to go back china, how many people know its name?


BTW, RICE is an interest name though, in china    you may spend some time to explain this school has NO any relationship with farming or agricutrue. Just kidding.











摘自一篇在网上广泛留传的文章


我认为 ,大家应该把选校范围放的大一些,在中国,大家都知道的也就是哈佛、斯坦福、耶鲁几所,大部分人都没听说过Dartmouth学院,更不会知道Dartmouth MBA比耶鲁的还要好。我问过很多人,几乎没人知道Michigan大学和Michigan State大学谁好谁差的。



我认为对于想留在美国的人来说,第一重要的是就业率。我举个例子,Rice大学在美国第四大城市休斯敦,是明星级大学,它的商学院今年平均起薪是$97,458美元,高于南加州大学的$95,213美元;其就业率94.7%也大大高于附近的UT-Austin85.8%,这样的好学校在中国竟少有人问津。


Are the facts that state in this article still true in these days? Who can tell me the ROI ranking of Rice MBA program?

i cannot explain why rice can keep its placement rate so high.        Let me    post    the data for RICE from business week here:




2003 graduates seeking employment (1)         74%



Graduates who:



received their first job offer by graduation 65%



received their first job offer within the first three months after graduation 81%



it looks like a totally different story from US news.     i would know some info from its alumni rather than from media.



is there anybody from rice who can take some questions?

According your information, the living expense in Houston will be 8000$ one year, right?

----
I am afraid that it is difficult to keep the living expense lower than
10K. 12K --- 13K is possible if you share a cheaper apartment with
someone.



The
tuition of Rice MBA program is about 30k$ one year, so the total cost
will be 40k$, not far higher than many other US schools?


-----50K total expense is more like it..     the tuition fee is 33K
actually, don't forget other fees and books. the liveing expense shall
include med insurance and phone....






I
heard that it very difficult for Chinese applicants get some kinds of
financial aids from Rice? Right? Do you get some scholarship from Rice,
how will u afford such high cost?


-----Yeah, that is true. although some international students did
managed to get some aids from the school, it is minor. i did not get
any yet. I don't think i can count on that...     As for me... I have
worked for 8 years, got some savings. besides my family supports me.






Do
u know the job placement situation for Rice MBA program, especially
those Chinese students? Can they find job in Texas? Or all come back to
China?


-----It is difficult for chinese students to find a job in US.     Rice's
financing is pretty good and the school pays much attention to train
students to be entrepreneurs.     the chinese students i knew did find
jobs here, but i am not quite sure about the odds. it is more like
individual cases, things may vary. One of my friends from a top ten
school got a job that pays 120K a year, but one of his classmate could
not find a job half a year after graduation.



It is difficult to make such kind of decisions. For me, going abroad is
about nothing but a choice of lifestyle and a chance to live with my wife.     Career opportunities might be better
off at home in china for me because i did pretty good there. Think
twice, pal, there is no way to return once you made your choice.    
good luck.
