Admitted: Indiana / Kelley , USC / Marshall
Applied: Indiana / Kelley, USC / Marshall
Entering Year: 2025
GPA: 3.81
Notes:

I want to stay on the West Coast post-MBA, and I can live with my parents to save on rent, which makes USC a strong option. However, I’m very debt averse and not targeting high-paying roles like investment banking or consulting. Instead, I’m more focused on pursuing FLDPs or Brand Marketing roles. Kelley is also tempting with the full ride. help!
