How important is going to the right school for a MBA?

<h3>How important is going to the right school for a MBA?</h3>

I am looking at a school in the Cayman islands that is basically unheard of. It doesn't look like that high of quality but seeing as Cayman Islands are associated with Banks and money, I am wondering if the anonymity of this school would be a problem?


<strong>Cayman Islands best answer:</strong>
<p><i>Answer by MM</i><br/>If you want to work for a reputable bank or other major financial institution, then yes, it will be a problem. The bigger and better known the corporation, the more likely they are to care about rankings, to the point that they may not even look at you if you didn't attend a top school. At the very least, make sure wherever you go is AACSB accredited and that companies you want to work for recruit or at least hire from there.</p>
