Hi everyone,

I applied to (and was accepted by) NYU for their MA in I/O psychology for this fall. I also submitted my application to Baruch for an MS in the same field, I have yet to hear back from them. I am also applying to the MBA program with an emphasis in I/O psychology from Baruch’s school of business

My biggest question is: what are some advantages/disadvantages of going with an MA/MS versus an MBA? How will my job prospects differ? Do consulting companies tend to prefer one over the other?

Thanks!
