trying to figure out my aim for this whole MBA thing...i know i am going back to school in January...decisions need to be made, though...Loyola or UNO...Tulane i think is too much $$...my dad would be proud if i chose Tulane, though...he's not here anymore to help me with this decision and he was great at it

I'd do research on costs of schools, assistantships offered, and scholarships if any for the graduate program you want. You should also call the schools and meet with someone to show you around the campus and meet some of the faculty. You'll be spending a lot of time working with these people. The school I'm going to is going to cost major bucks, but it was easier to get into and had the exact program I'm looking for. Also, find out how easy it is to get financial aid. FA is only offering $18,500 a year now for graduate school. The school I'm going to will cost me more, but they have their own financial aid program for students that need to go over that is easy to get and lower interest rates than most other private loans.
Sorry -- I've been going through all of this the past 2 years trying to decide so I thought I'd help.
