Hi,
I was just reading the fortune top 100 companies list where BCG was ranked as 4th this year. Under the benefits it says that they reimburse college tution fees. I am currently a master student in France(Non MBA master). Can the reimburse my fee too?
ThankYou
Hi,
Companies don't sponsor college. They may sponsor only MBA in 2 ways:
The 2nd option is in general better since you get a significant fellowship as a non-sponsored student (up to 70% of tuition across Harvard and Stanford. up to 90% in Harvard starting from this year). For Big3 firms, it's also better since they reimburse the discounted amount. And you are always free to switch to a different company during MBA.
If you just join MBB the first time after MBA you get a sign-on bonus of 30-50k
Best,
Deloitte is the only one who reimburses MBA tuition ex-post (meaning you decided to pursue the degree on your own and then you join Deloitte). All others do not reimburse MBA tuition ex-post but only if you were employed with them beforehand. However, as stated, do expect a sign-on bonus that, depending on the regions varies between 5-30k.
Hope it helps,
Andrea
Hey,
Never heard of any consulting company reimbursing non advanced degrees (MBA or PhD less often), but you can expect to get a sign in bonus but they are not directly linked.

Hi Anonymous,
Quick answer: no. BCG and other top consulting firms only pay for MBAs, and only for the top in the cohort and if they then stay with the company for 2 years more after the end of the MBA.

Dear A,
It's not a common practice to get reimbersemement. You may try to ask for sponsorship for MBA, but it has also some issues.
If you need any help, feel free to reach out.
Best,
