Coming from an entirely tech background and looking to continue IT Ops management but keeping my other options open. The Cornell 1+1 program is a big interest but I’m also very intrigued by the community and top rated tech courses at CMU. This is a hard choice

eliot Verified User. Likes Earned: 1947 Congrats on your acceptances to Tepper, Johnson and Anderson. Well done. All three are solid MBA programs with a strong track record of tech industry placement. You can't go wrong with any of these choices so feel free to let your personal preferences guide your decision. I do encourage you to visit these schools and speak with current students to help you determine which is the best personal fit for you.

Do you have a geographic preference for where you want to work post MBA? For example, if you want to work in tech on the West Coast, Anderson has strong ties to the SoCal tech scene while both Johnson and Tepper would provide you with more opportunities on the East Coast.

Yale SOM and CBS are great MBA programs as well. Do you have a preference between these programs and your current choices?
