SCHOOL COMMENTS

s

The networking strength of Boston College cannot be overstated. The small size of the full time program provides a great sense of camraderie with faculty and staff. --Finance

BC infuses ethics in its teaching within all function areas, from core classes to electives. You can't escape it, nor should you, as employers value this type of individual. --Marketing

BC's weakness is its building. It's OK, but to compete with top 25 programs, it needs a building that has more breakout rooms, late-night study areas, and can support a larger program by having bigger lecture halls. --Marketing

s

Having a small program is a serious limitation when it comes to recruiters coming to campus -- many do not, in part because the student pool is so small compared to other schools. The upside is that you get to know your classmates well and form a great network. --Finance

BC's program is great for people going into finance and who want to build strong social networks. The focus is on academics as well as on building networks and having fun. I loved the challenging level of the program, and I also met my future husband and some terrific friends, gained a superior network of colleagues with whom I hope to do business in the future and had a blast during my 2 years there.--Investment Banking

Boston College is a great school and both the students and faculty are pretty good. The problem is that it is a regional business school. Students interested in being on the West Coast or even New York will have a harder time making connections and receiving job offers. The size of the school also limits recruiter interest. Students that know what they want to do, especially if it is in the Northeast will do very well.--Marketing
