Hello,
This is Deven here from Mumbai. I have received admission in Bentley as well. I received research assistantship upto where mytuition amt upto $25596 will be waived off. I was a lil confused between University of Pittsburgh Katz and Bentley College. Kindly help me make this choice.

I have already received the i20 from katz and will haev to reply to bentley to get my i 20.
I was wondering
->> how do i select between these schools if i would like to pursue an mba in marketing/strategy.
->> Bentley is in boston and Katz is in pittsburgh.
->> Can i negotiate with Katz for the tuition if I have already paid the enrollment deposit.
-->>This choice will can help me waive off abt 20000$ off my tuition. that is around 9 lakhs. so I was wondering are 9 lakhs an investment if I go to Katz or not. And are they "good" savings if i go to Bentley.

don't just decide on US News Ranks - also look at BW and FT rankings, with FT being global rankings..Katz ranks consistently well across all the 3 rankings..also i live in the US and have never heard of BEntley, but Katz - yes.

Hey puhrince... thanks for you reply.. i think i am totally inclined towards Katz and am taking a visa date now.. have u heard of case western reserve??? if u were to chose between the 2.. what would u chose?

[puhrince]

i wud still choose Katz...Case Western used to be good, not anymore these days...but all this apart, if ur really inclined to do a research asstship u may want to choose Bentley - i say this only if fees matter to you.
