<p>I’m having a hard time choosing between NU and Rollins. </p>

<p>I got accepted to NU with a 16k/year scholarship and by the time I graduate I would have:
Bachelors of Science in International Business from NU
Minor in International Affairs from NU
Bachelors of Science in Business Administration from Dublin City University
6 Months work experience domestic
6 Months work experience overseas
1.5 Years of Actual Study Abroad
Some Language Proficiency, probably in Arabic or something else.</p>

<p>I got ~17k/year from Rollins and by the time I graduate I would have:
Bachelors of Science in Business Administration
Early Advantage Masters in Business Administration (EAMBA)
Some Study Abroad</p>

<p>I guess the debate is whether Rollin’s EAMBA program is worth it, or in the long run would going to NU, getting a better job because of experience/co-op and then going back to get an MBA be better?</p>

<p>I’m looking for any help in this decision and as many viewpoints as possible.</p>

<p>Northeastern sounds better to me. Which environment suits you more? Which location is better for you? Do you have a gut feeling about either of them? Northeastern is urban. It’s a big school, but not huge. Northeastern will give you more options if you change your mind about majors, and Boston is an exciting college town. The Northeastern Coop program is a huge plus. Congratulations on both of your scholarships.</p>

<p>The two schools have entirely different cultures. Have you spent time at each one? I’ve heard that the MBA program at Rollins is quite good. Can you talk to some current students?</p>

<p>Thanks; ignoring all the personal/atmosphere stuff I’m looking more for a comparison of the MBA immediately from Rollins compared to 3-4 years later from a better school after NU.</p>
