Didn't read everyone's response, but have you factored in the additional college loan debt you'd accrue with grad school and how that might impact your credit and ability to get loans, etc?

If it's paid for then get the degree, otherwise I say get the business rolling now before someone else has your idea.

all i can say is that at your age your thinking is totally different then they are at my age.

when i was your age i was like "screw school, i want to start up a business NOW NOW NOW, i'm sick of being poor.. i want a bmw, i want a big house, i want pussy!!"

now my thinking is "i cant wait to start my tren cycle and take the dogs to the park, oh and it would be nice if i had a degree and a cushy job cause i have gray hairs and don't pay myself a thing being a business owner. just bust my ass for nothing"

I do not see why you cannot do BOTH. and then as things progress you can choose to finish college or stop college and continue with the business. this is what i did. if my biz didn't work out i would just continue school.. no biggie besides crushed dreams. bill gates did this and michael dell and countless other businessman

Don't most MBA programs prefer candidates who have some real-world business experience?

I'm thinking take the GMATs while you're fresh, then concentrate on the business for a year or two.

I think the old age is effecting your memory

not even going to bother to explain why

Or maybe I never knew. I'm not familiar with your past at all, I'm going off this thread and that you're just finishing a bachelor's degree.

Pitt has an 11-month program that is geared toward recent undergrads...i'm sure a lot of other universities do too...especially now with the job market being what it is and so many undergrads choosing to go straight to grad school rather than floundering around in a shitty job market.

I dont think he could do both and be effective at both without suffering at the very least...serious burnout and mostly failing at one or both.

there are a LOT of MBA programs out there geared towards working adults but I'm not sure this is really the caliber of education he was looking towards (not with the schools mentioned) otherwise I think this is a totally valid idea
