Student & Alumni Voices

What was unexpected was the strong relationships I formed, the overwhelming support from the professors and staff, and my success both academically, and in finding the job that I wanted.
Stephanie L. Giordano
Alumni | Eisner Amper
I wanted to change careers, but I didn't want to be in school for years. I liked the idea that the MBA was 14-months long, and that it was designed for people who didn't have a business background.
Scott Lissner
Alumni | KPMG
This program was a game changer for me. In about two years, I went from leaving my job as a high school band director to now starting as an audit assistant at Deloitte.
