Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 Go Kellogg...I'd do consulting for a few years. Get some experience and money (pay off the school cost etc) and transition into non profit/social impact later on in life. Kellogg is a nationally recognized brand and would help you most in the future. (0)

Anon Likes Earned: 0 Kellogg is a great school for consulting, but UCLA is definitely soemthing in non profit with its social impact specialization (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 With that scholarship I think UCLA makes sense as well, and your gmat would pretty much make you shine among anderson classmates when you are applying to consulting (pretty much no competition in Anderson since most students go into tech) (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 Kellogg. Significantly better school unless you have a reason to go to UCLA other than a temporary infusion of cash. (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 OP, be careful about ppl telling you to turn down Kellogg, when they are just waiting to get accepted from the waitlist there. Huge conflict of interest here. Btw, I would go to Kellogg if I were you. (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 Kellogg is the clear choice. Only chance I would take Anderson is if I was 100% sure that I wanted to be in LA/California. (0)

Kellogg Likes Earned: 0 hands down OP! its not a question in my mind... (0)

Anonymous Likes Earned: 0 Go Kellogg! Such an awesome place. My backgrnd is dif than u (marketing consulting) but I think the social impact strength at Kellogg is great and worth the price. Personally I turned down mit and booth money for Kellogg. (0)
