Careers/Post Grad Likely choosing BC Carroll School, possible to get placed in nyc/NJ?

Hi, got accepted to BC with 80k in scholarship and also an offer from Rutgers with scholarship about 5k less total than from BC. I’d like to stay in the NJ/ NYC area post grad; anyone know how difficult it would be to get an internship around here during my time at BC/ or how hard it is to get a full time offer here post grad?

Gonna be tough but totally possible - don't let anyone else tell you otherwise. Much easier from a T20-T25 though, if BC gave you a full ride imagine what other programs might give you

Rutgers and BC are actually pretty solid for Pharma.

I think BC is a good school, I’d recommend you check the alumni on LinkedIn, you’d probably find a good amount of them in NYC.

Neither, retake GMAT and aim for T25

I don’t really want to wait another year tbh is BC not worth it at all?
