Tech has lots of connections to large operations heavy Atlanta companies like Coca-Cola and Delta which is why they have such great operations placements. They are also cheaper than most B schools even for out of state. I'm curious to know though what the decision process was like even with that large scholarship offer from Rice? Good luck at Scheller!
