Hi, and thanks for writing! The good news is that all of the top 20 schools have strong relationships with management consulting firms. A few factors to consider when selecting schools are: 1. LOCATION - where do you want to live/work after graduation? Some recruitment can be local 2. Culture of school - based on research, where do you see the strongest fit between yourself and the program? 3. Class size/teaching method - do you prefer case, lecture, or a mix of methods? Would you prefer a small program of 200 or are you more open to larger programs?

Regarding scholarships - it's tough to predict with limited information. Admissions offers make scholarship decisions based on the strength of the profile vs. the incoming class, and these are generally quite competitive. If you'd like to discuss your profile in more detail, I definitely recommend signing up for a free 30-min. consultation here: https://www.mbamission.com/consult/
Thanks! :)
