BHP at Austin for sure. Recruiters that I talked to said they don’t feel like the BHP students are any less educated than the Sloan or Wharton kids, it doesn’t have the prestige yet but the people who know business and do the recruiting know. But they say they often don’t get the kids they want for their business because so many of the BHP students end up working where they intern during college. Also, if you do plan to live in Texas, the network is huge and very strong. If you plan to be in the northeast, Sloan and Wharton may be better choices. But the kids I know that go to Sloan and Wharton say they love the program, do not like the school or city they are in. People that go to Austin love it all. Plus, so many kids from the program end up in top MBA programs or law schools, spend your money there.
