I’m a Farmer grad living in Chicago. There are many thousands of Miami alums, and specifically Farmer alums in Chicago. The alumni chapter is very active both socially and professionally for networking. IU/Kelley also has a large Chicago alumni base. The name recognition and perception of both business schools is very strong in Chicago. While both have sizeable alumni populations in NYC, there is somewhat less visibility of both business schools in NYC. While Kelley is ranked somewhat higher than Farmer (in some publications), the delta is not large enough to point to a considerable difference in employer perception or student experience. I would check the Farmer web page on the MU web site for stats on grad school acceptance - or email them for further info. As an overall student body, MU has grad school acceptance rate significantly above the national average. I cannot comment on IU grad school placement. The stats of Farmer and Kelley direct admit students are similar, but the average GPA and test scores of the overall MU student body are a tier higher than that of IU. Finally, IU is significantly larger than MU and the campus has a different feel. I strongly suggest you visit both campuses to decide where you feel more comfortable.
