Hi everybody, I am wondering if somebody can help me decide on which US business schools to apply to. I am interested in supply chain. Also, I am on a budget. This is my (long) short list of schools, but I want to narrow this down to 3-5 schools:

BYU
South Carolina Moore
Alabama Manderson
Marquette
Wisconsin
UNC Greensboro
University of South Florida
Lehigh
Buffalo

Thanks for any advice

Did you see http://find-mba.com/articles/mba-programs-in-supply-chain-management-beyond-logistics anfd the article linked at the bottom there?

UT Knoxville would be a great choice, it's not too far tuition-wise from some of the programs you are looking at, and it's ranked here:

So is Wisconsin. Moore would be a good choice as well.

Oh that's great, thanks so much! I've heard about Wisconsin but I didn't know it had a reputation for supply chain. I'll look closely at it.

There's Smeal too, depending on your budget...

@Haroldmeyer,

Out of the schools you listed. Wisconsin is known to have good focus in SCM. As Razors Edge suggested. Outside your list. Look at Michigan State - Eli Broad, Purdue , Penn State - Smeal, Arizona State, UT Knoxville, and even Uni of Georgia - Athens.

Thanks. By "Georgia - Athens" do you mean the Terry College of Business? Just making sure...

The Terry School is in Athens.
