<prompt> Human: Hi all,Ive kicked around the idea of doing a part-time MBA for a long time, but the cost has really put me off. I definitely only want to do it if I can attend a top 10-14 school, but the tuition rates tend to be in the 90-120k range. Schools Ive considered are NYU stern, U of Chicago, Northwestern, etc that are schools with top tier part time programs.My employer currently doesnt offer any tuition reimbursement, and even then most that Ive found usually only reimburse 5-10k per year at most.Any other thoughts on approaches to get reduced tuition at top tier schools?120k for 15years 6-8 is around 1000-1200month Im not confident that an MBA would instantly provide me 15k per year, given that I am in software product management.  <response>: What are you doing an MBA for? If you dont need it and just want to for a potential job advancement, I recommend you not to do it, youll just rack up more debt.Even if you do earn more afterwards, your new pay may not be able to pay off what you invested into a 2 year MBA. Youll be stuck paying off a long term debt.
