Notes:

Deciding between Johnson and Emory MBA/MPH. Also working the waitlist at Duke (R1) & waiting on Dartmouth (R2). Leaning towards Cornell based on strength of the program, the fact that I went to Emory for undergrad, & bc I'd rather be in the NE post-grad (not a dealbreaker though). Worried about lack of HC offerings/opportunities at Johnson, & no $.

alexbr4 Verified User. Likes Earned: 1675 For your current options, and desire to be in the North East, Cornell might have the edge here, from the MBA side of things, anyway. (0)

anon12901 Likes Earned: 5 Keep working the waitlist at Duke if you can, seems like that would check all the boxes for you. Otherwise I would probably lean Cornell if you want consulting but Emory if you are really set on the HC field. (0)

anon26294 Likes Earned: 0 I would say Tuck may help check your boxes more than Fuqua. Fuqua has a good NE employment report but it is a southern school and has Weds off, instead of Fri so planning trips to meet potential employers a bit far away may be tougher (0)
