Dear AdminConsultant
Several years from now I hope to attend a top 10 MBA program. In the meantime I'm planning to get a master's degree in my discipline (engineering) while working full time.
Here's the situation
a) pursue masters at the local university which is tier 2/3, ranked #33 for my discipline. (Please note that my undergrad is from a leading public school and ranked #5/6 for my discipline)
b) pursue masters via distance learning at more prestigious school.
I'm concerned about the impact of getting a masters from lower ranked school would have on my chance of admission at top MBAs (Northwestern, Dartmouth, Harvard).
I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks.
