Hi,
I am a final year undergraduate student in engineering. I'd like to get into MBB consulting. I have a chance to get a full ride government scholarship. However, the scholarship organisation clearly stated they won't aid for an MBA. I've already received a response that they are willing to fund other business management degrees. That's why I am looking for MIM programmes. I would also have a chance to growing my network via this scholarship (they would set me up in a close-knit group of about 100 people). My options are limited to 3 reputable universities:
1. MPS in management Cornell, US
2. MSc Management UCL, UK
3. MMS Duke, US
Should I take my scholarship? or decline it and pursue an MBA later on?
(Actually for Cornell, they state on their website that the MPS programme could be a pathway to their 1-year MBA programme. I think it would be redundant.)
Thanks!
Thank you for your response. To put it into context, I come from a developing southeast asia country. After my undergraduate, I would be accepted as a project specialist at BCG or a consulting analyst at McKinsey. I even have absolutely zero chance to get into Bain.
