Notes:

The Simon admissions team really went above and beyond in engaging with me, discussing my application, showcasing their school. The scholarship was also a big deciding factor for me. I had been looking at cheaper and shorter MSF programs, but with the scholarship offer I was able to go for the MBA.

Notes:

The STEM designated MBA options at Simon & Duke are huge for an international student as it basically provides a pathway to citizenship (3 years OPT). Similar jobs pay 3 to 4 times more in the US compared to my home country. I honestly love all 4 schools. Duke was initially my top choice, but Simon is really special too! Withdrew from ASU & UCI.
