[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the uni level, [b]beyond HYPMS and possibly Wharton for finance[/b], I just don’t think it matters very much at all. I say this as a proud alum of a T20 who loved my time there, but I’m not sure that degree, nor one from G’Town, or Cornell, Brown, or Rice or whatever comparable uni, gave me a world of possibilities that I couldn’t have gotten at PSU or UMD or Clemson. At the end of the day as long as it’s a college most people have heard of (not in a notorious sort of way at least), it should be more a function of what you put into it than anything else. [/quote] Why does it matter if you went to one of those schools either? Can you name me one opportunity available to graduates of those schools that is not available to a graduate of Brown, Cornell or Rice? Even the most exclusive firms/jobs have more than those schools on their target hiring list (though, they don't have PSU/UMD/Clemson on all of them and possibly none of them). [/quote]
