Good luck with your choice to go back to school. This is a big decision but despite the debt I am sure it is a wise choice.
I too have been debating on going back but I am unsure of what I would study. I will continue to mull it over.

Good luck with the MBA. It’s one of the greatest things you can do for your career. Going with the MIS concentration will set you up nicely to be a CIO or CTO someday.

I think it sounds like you made a good decision. Especially if you can increase your salary. Long term, this is good.

I have debated this decision for a long-time. However, my salary would not significantly increase to continue. Plus, I have a 14 year old not too far away from college. So, I figured I need to attend to his schooling needs first. In the future, perhaps I will go back for self gratification.

Good luck on continuing school. Well done!

And the 18 months will fly by in no time!
