I guess I’ll say it again.
- It costs twice as much as IU Kelley. For a school that, in my opinion, isn’t significantly better than IU Kelley I definitely don’t want to be paying an extra $160k which my family can fortunately afford but it would be a stupid decision and honestly a waste of money IMO. And there isn’t any prestige boost compared to IU Kelley (I think it may even be a downgrade if anything) which isn’t really something I care about but it would at least make the price difference somewhat worth it
- IU Kelley places like at least 5x better into NYC IB than SMU. The IBW itself at IU Kelley sent all 70 of its members into IB. No club at SMU is matching those numbers. Although getting a job in Dallas from SMU would be easier, I don’t want to work in Dallas, and worst case, for IU if I go to Chicago it’s 10x easier to transfer to transfer from there to NYC compared to from Dallas from what I’ve gathered (I may be wrong about this).
- I went there and I just didn’t enjoy it. Simple as that.
