Bao, getting into a top business school (top 10 let's say) will be worth the extra $$ depending on where you want to be after you gradute. The networking, alumni, and recruiting benefits alone are worth it. If you want to get into a top MBA program expect to go full time though.
In Finance, having a degree from Whartons, Booth, or Harvard will open many more job opportunities than BC, Bentley, or even BU. Nevertheless if you plan on staying in MA or New England having an MBA from Bentley, BU, BC etc look almost as good.
