It actually is worth it if the goal is Wall Street. For that ambition, the $400,000 price tag is a worthwhile investment. For any other purpose, take the full ride to Emory.

I have a ton of friends that did Harvard or Wharton (I went to MIT). Here's my take:
Wharton = lots of debt so no matter what you need to be making tons of money. Money = someone owns your soul until you payoff the debt.
Emory = freedom of choice with less debt.
You can see where I would lean.

Depends on how much money your family has and how badly your kid wants to go into finance

If they secured one of the few full merit scholarship awards, your kid will thrive, will get priority class registration and will secure an amazing finance job after graduation. I know someone who chose that route and is happy and beyond successful at a young age. The undergrad business program at emory is very strong and well run. Congrats!
Yes, it's the Woodruff.

I would take Wharton even with full pay. Get a job in investment banking and you will make much more $$$$

Probably the Woodruff scholarship. I know Wharton is better for finance, but I would take the money and go to Emory. Kids seem much happier there. Save the money and he can use it for an MBA in 10 years.

I’d take the full ride. He’s going to succeed anyway. Give him 400k for a down payment in nyc. He’ll be way ahead of his peers

DS is trying to decide. Wants to go into finance. Emory is free, Wharton is full pay. Is Wharton really worth that?
