Even though the program is large, I have never felt like a number. From the teacher's interest in their students to the career services office pushing for every one to succeed. I have always felt like the resources are there for me and that they are catered to my needs instead of the masses'.

Almost every business program I took was better than expected. However, I have not felt that there has not been much emphasis on business ethics and responsibility especially in this economic crisis where many CEOs behaved unethically and irresponsibly.

Despite its large size, it is very integrated. We are constantly informed of events on campus, usually sponsored by prestigious firms. I don't feel like I am just taking business courses. Instead, I feel like I am part of a program that is completely focused on preparing me for the real world. The quality of professors here is unbelievable - most have been major contributors to leading firms in their field.

From the first day you walk into our business school, your focus is on getting a job. Every single thing we do is preparing us for interviewing and getting a job. It makes life extremely stressful but it really motivated me to figure out exactly what I wanted to do, and to make it happen.

The two places where Kelley has fallen short are career services and academic advising, everywhere else they are perfect and I couldn't ask more from a business school. Academic advisors are unorganized, uniformed, and many students are left confused and unsure of the questions they present to the advisors after meeting with the them. Kelley brings in fabulous companies to recruit on campus but the two career development classes they offer do little to help students and are filled with mindless busy work.

The program is incredibly challenging but rewarding. Our facilities are awful---but they are in the process of completing the plans for a massive renovation.

We might not have the most state of the art facilities or even the very best faculty in the nation (although I'd say they're close), but Indiana University is a special place and one that will prepare you for the real world like nowhere else can. The culture and traditions here and the people that you are surrounded by truly help prepare you for life after college. It's not as much about the specifics of what you learn, but rather a way of thinking and doing things that makes Indiana University graduates successful in whatever endeavor they undertake.

The Kelley School of Business has broadened my horizons and belief in what I can achieve in life to a whole new level. In only three years, I have had the opportunity to compete and place in national case competitions, co-found the first Kelley student organization that manages and invests real money in the stock market (Kelley Portfolio Management Club), network with some of the most distinguished faculty and alumni in the world, form an energy consulting firm with three colleagues, and will study abroad in the best business school in the Netherlands (Maastricht University) this coming Spring 2010 semester. The Kelley School has a great history of pride, achievement, and most importantly a family feel that lasts for a lifetime.

I think that we put a greater stress on job placement then actual academics. This could be good or bad, for my purposes (not looking to work right away) I would have probably liked it otherwise.

I would say that our integrated core program called I-Core helps to make our program unique. This is a semester long project that encompasses the subjects of marketing, strategy, operations and finance. There is a final case project at the end of the semester that is a week long and you are able to apply everything you have applied and put it into a final project.

Kelley has a huge focus on teamwork. Often more than half my classes will involve me working in teams. Also, since the school is so big, you are forced to learn to work and socialize with a wide variety of people from different backgrounds.

I had an amazing experience for the first three years of business school. However, now that I am taking classes within my particular major, I am thoroughly disappointed with the professors. They are inappropriate and unprofessional in many situations and they are not committed to helping us learn. I was very surprised to find such inadequate professors in my last year of school after having such an amazing set of educators up until this point. It really dropped my perception of the business school and has led me to dread going to class.

What separates IU's Kelley School of Business is definitely the faculty. They take the time to get to know students (particularly in the well-advised Business Honors Program) and earnestly want students to experience challenges but also succeed. Also, IU has a great laid-back atmosphere with the right amount of competition: not enough to scare a student away, but still enough to challenge students to succeed. The capstone of the Kelley School of Business is definitely Integrative Core, which is typically completed in a student's junior year.

I feel that the business school at Indiana University has started to lower their requirements for students in the business school. At times, I do not feel as though I attend a top tier undergraduate program because I am surrounded by average students.
