alexbr4 Verified User. Likes Earned: 1693 Did you waive the GMAT test? Do you have any geographic preference, within the US, post MBA? Owen would have the better overall reputation, but best to scrutinise the career reports and also seek out African alumni to get a better sense in terms of the accessibility of your plans from these programs.

anon27834 Likes Earned: 1 Yes, I waived the GMAT test because of my background and some programming languages. No i do not have a preference post-MBA. Kogod does not have a career report. And people in the school all speak highly of their alma mater (0)

eliot Verified User. Likes Earned: 1917 I encourage you to do your due diligence by chatting with current students from both programs, particularly students seeking a similar career path to you. Kogod has strong ties in the Washington DC area so if you are seeking a job in the DC metro area, Kogod would be a good option. Owen would provide more opportunities across a wider geographic area, particularly in the US Southeast. (0)
