[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My neighbor's kid passed up on Carnegie Mellon, MIT, and a couple other top shelf schools for UMCP. Simple reason, instate tuition. Since the downturn of the economy and horrible job market, it just doesn't make sense to go into debt for the high price institutions.  [/quote]

smart move UNLESS nabe's kid wants to do consulting or finance. MIT would've been worth the debt load because the recruiting is almost on par with HYPSW for those two fields. [/quote]
[b]He'd need a graduate degree for those anyway. [/b]It's a good idea to save the name-brand school for graduate work anyway.[/quote]

no you don't.

the largest pipeline to consulting/finance is UG recruiting @ HYPSW.

That said, you can break in from grad school but it is certainly not necessary.

And most of the time, especially at MBB consulting, you can get b-school paid for by the firm if they want you back and you want to come back to the firm. that's why breaking in after UG is valuable. [/quote]
