<prompt> Human: Hello friends of PF. Ive been working for almost 2 years in corporate finance and finished paying all my student loans from undergrad. Im currently considering the pros and cons of going back to school part-time for an MBA within the next year or so in the Boston area. Ive done some quick research on the tuition of graduate programs near my area and its basically about 650credit for public universities vs 1,400credit for the private university I graduated from. Just wondering what other peoples opinion are regarding the return on investment for getting an MBA in a public university vs private university. Thanks in advance for your input!edit - I can afford either options with my current income and 5,000 tuition reimbursement from my employer.  <response>: Degree gets you the interview. Your character gets you the job.
