University of Chicago vs. Dartmouth

<p>Jeni94:</p>

<p>1) It sounds like you need to contact someone at Cutter to have your black female at Dartmouth questions answered.</p>

<p>2) The answer to your HBS, Columbia, Wharton question and enrollment of UChicago grads is known only by those MBA schools. However, work experience and GMAT scores are a part of the admission criterion for those programs. A name school like UChicago or Dartmouth with an adequate GPA will win out over lesser name with a high GPA, all else being equal.</p>

<p>3) “I’m wondering if a firm based in New York would feel the need to recruit at U of C, if they have Cornell, NYU, Columbia and Penn and Dartmouth kids at their disposal.”</p>

<p>Why would a NY firm bother with Dartmouth? It is 5 hours from NYC by car without traffic. If you try to fly to Manchester NH or Burlington VT, Dartmouth is still 5 hours by plane/auto. However, most large NY firms have Chicago offices but not ones near Hanover. Depending on the position, the recruiting/interviewing process starts with people from the Chicago office.</p>
