ESADE and IE are both great Spanish business schools and I've received an invitation from both. Which one is better for me? Please advise!

Hi Rajav,

congrats for acceptance at both schools. Yes, both schools are well-ranked, internationally accredited and very international. What you could still do to assess whether one school is more suited than the other for you is:

Investigate which companies visit the campuses to recruit MIM graduates - maybe one school has contacts to recruiters from companies that you prefer.
Calculate the total costs of each program (fees, living expenses, => length of the program, etc.) - maybe choose the lower cost program?
Check out whether these schools have alumni clubs in your country or even city - maybe choose the program with active alumni clubs in your area?
Finally, visit both campusses, meet the program managers and students, sit in the classrooms and talk to professors, and finally trust in your gut feeling (wheer do you feel more comfortable?)

Best regards,
Thomas
