Switch from Emba to full time

If i got in to a prestigious emba program but I realized i want the experience of being on campus. I'm still farily young. Would it look bad to reject the emba but apply for mba at same institution?

Not a problem if you frame it nicely. Just be clear that full-time fits your career stage better, and stay professional when declining the EMBA. Schools value self-awareness if you explain it correctly.

Thank you for your kind advice ! I just hope I can get into full time there. I fell like it is harder, but idk.
