一个哥大公共政策硕士对MBA的真实评价，让我犹豫是否该去读！

骚毛裤

我有朋友是哥大这个专业毕业的，同样是本科毕业过去的，没有工作经验，中国人，同样是07，08年那段时间，毕业之后就在NY的DB工作

楼主这位朋友说的话太极端了点

无非给自己找借口罢了

公共政策的硕士，和金融一毛钱关系都没有，还没工作经验，都能拿到那么多投行的面试，哥大的牌子也是够硬的。

而且即使有了工作签证，一旦公司把你裁了，你就立刻成为非法留竟，只给你很短的时间离境，否则就会被抓！他就亲眼见好几个人，在美国念的名校MBA，房子，车都买了，老婆也都在，突然失业了，都快疯了！我问他难道他不能再找工作吗？他说根本没时间给你找工作！一周之内就得离境！

Please don't scare people. Although H1B holders who are laid off have no official graceful period, usually you can stay for 1-2 months to look for a new job without transfering your status. In addition, there are many ways to change your status. If you are married and your spouse is in legal status (F1, H1, J1), you can simply transfer to F2 or H4 spouse visa. Many people also register in language schools or community colleges to regain an F1 visa before they get the next job. If your status is changed successfully, you can stay as long as you want and once you find a job you can switch back to H1B.

There Are quite a few people finally got to leave US in the end after several months of effortless job search, but definitely not the next day. Not in one week either.

That's real situation for international people. I agree. I wish all CDers share what they experienced instead of something heard; besides, I don't deny the fact that some people release  misleading information on purpose, but also thank LZ for sharing her friend's story

You can say it again. Frankly speaking, lucky people realize their American dreams, but not everyone. One credential, like an MBA diploma, does not guarantee you anything. Your overall competitiveness does. If your dream is so strong to ignore all the challenges you can possibly imagine, go get it. Some people make their American dreams come true, why not you? However, if you are not that convinced of your own luck or ability, you probably should drop out of the effort. Too many examples you can recite to attest to your intended conclusion. Either way, good luck!

围城效应啊，先不管LZ转的这个说的对还是不对。读MBA一定要三思啊，尤其是现在国内很多人对读完MBA的出路抱有莫名的ILLUSION。 这个也送给自己，尤其现在不论是美国，欧洲还是亚洲的商学院一个劲的来中国做宣传啊。

If an 'MBA' cannot give you anything for sure, why so many people relentless pursue it?
