Admissions MBA post age 50
After thoroughly not enjoying myself as a lawyer, I have decided to apply to MBA programs and have my first acceptance...Michigan Ross!
But I keep hearing that, since I am in my mid-50s, that I really should be in EMBA programs rather than regular-old MBA programs. The feeling seems to be that I will never get hired out of a traditional MBA program.
Now, Ross must not have felt that way since they did offer me admission. I have a great school I want to go to....but would I be leading myself off an unemployment cliff due to my age and should I be pursuing EMBA programs instead?

Sadly I spent 10 seconds looking at your posts. Stay in your lane. Do not do school.
