I have been looking at all the elite business colleges.  MIT Slone School of Management and the Harvard Kennedy School of Government (Crisis Management) keep staying in my top two.  Other ones just do not seem like a great fit for me so far. I will keep looking as this is my 2019 goal.

I may do the Rutgers Mini-MBA Certificate (1 Week) also as its the poor man's version.  Not elite, but affordable to do in addition.

MIT and Harvard are funny that you can be official alumni of the individual colleges, but not the main university.  You can be just an alumnus of the MIT Slone School of Management and the Harvard Kennedy School of Government.  The Slone and Kennedy’s schools are almost as famous as their parent university so its OK.  In my case, I could care less about the main university.  I just respect the individual college.
 
HES?
