CASS or Cranfield


maya1471

Hi! I'm applying to Cranfied and CASS executive MBAs. If I have a choice - any advice on which one I should go for.

I work in the public sector - 10 years experience. I'm looking to either accelerate my career or to switch careers - maybe move into organisational behaviour, change management, etc.

Which is the better school?

Cranfield, certainly. Cass would be better for finance.

Can I ask why? I'm keen to mix with private sector people and possibly switch to the private sector.... We'd Canfield still give me that exposure?

Thanks

Yes, I don't think many business school will give you any public sector experience, and any of the top 50 schools will give you a great experience. All of them are expanding, and I don't think Cass or Cranfield are that different in terms of their growth.

Despite what you say Cranfield is generally ranked above Cass, and the salaries are higher. See http://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/global-mba-rankings-2012

Cass is in the City. It serves the finance sector there more than anything else. For other industries, Cranfield's better. I think Cranfield's fourth term and greater stress on team work are big advantages.
