alexbr4 Verified User. Likes Earned: 1736 Tepper should help provide access to a range of geographies post MBA. It would also mean you start your post MBA career one year sooner, to move things forward. Reapplying next season may give you access to more opportunities, but it’s still a risk, relative to what you already have secured? (0)

eliot Verified User. Likes Earned: 1937 Tepper is a good MBA program that would provide you with opportunities to pursue your career goals. In addition, Tepper would allow you to begin your post MBA career one year sooner. If you decide to wait another year and reapply, be sure to take steps to strengthen your candidate profile over the next six months so that you would have more options next year. (0)
