ParticipantFLU – I agree with you in principal on the MBA’s but Top 10 is too selective. There are about 40 really good MBA programs in the country. When you say 2nd or third tier, most people think of those 40 cut into thirds.
Reality is that those Top 40 are solid. For me, the 2nd tier are the CSUSM, San Diego State’s, UCSD’s and USD’s of the world – maybe even UCI.
3rd tier is online.

GuestI just skimmed the article, but from what I can tell, she only has an undergrad business degree.
Is it really news that she’s having some trouble getting a job? Her situation is not that remarkable, even in a good economy.

ParticipantThe problem is that paying $100K (even though this is half off) to go to George Washington U. shows questionable judgment. She could have gone to University of Montana (in Missoula) at a cost of $5,200/year in total tuition (30 credit hours), thus saving herself well over $80,000 (after considering travel costs). Since she was a finance (and marketing) major, she could have spent $6,000 (fees plus books) on passing the CFA exams over the following two years while working at her father’s CPA firm. Then, she’s out of school with a BS, her CFA charter and a bit of work experience, all for $26K. Total. Given the choices she’s made, is it all that surprising that she can’t find a job?
George Washington’s a perfectly fine school, but $100K? Please.
