The MBA program at this “mission-driven Catholic school” focuses on the “integration of business and social responsibility.” The program offers many experiential learning opportunities, ranging from service-based work focusing on the business school’s mission to “Grow the Good in Business” to consulting projects across the U.S. and internationally. Students like the “heavy emphasis on business ethics” and appreciate that “smaller class sizes allow for a more connected learning environment with professors and fellow students.” Students say the courses “are interesting and relevant to the changing environment outside the classroom.” Classes are seven weeks long, and each semester is broken into two seven-week modules. Students say this condensed schedule means the “course load can be intense” but note that the school provides “a myriad of resources that help students juggle their coursework alongside their job searching and social activities.” The program runs “like a well-oiled machine,” and the administration is “sympathetic to students’ specific needs.” Professors here “know you personally” and are “accessible at all times.” Students say it’s clear that “professors love where they teach,” and it “shows in every class with their enthusiasm.” The “in-class communication is clear and concise,” and outside of class, professors “are willing to help us network and are fun to talk to on a personal level.” Overall, students say it’s clear that “all the teachers are very invested in the classes and how they can most effectively educate students.” As one student sums up, “Every professor I’ve had is an expert, loves their job, and creates a great classroom environment.”
