I would advise my friends or colleagues to attend the Simon School. However, due to the large international population, I would warn domestic students that they would be bearing a much heavier workload compared to the international counterparts. -- Accounting

I believe that Simon get you ready for the business world. -- Marketing

The experience at Simon was exactly what I had expected it would be. The class size and faculty accessibility provided for a very unique and personal MBA experience. -- Consulting

I loved my experience here at Simon and I would do it all over again. -- Marketing

Simon School needs to overhaul its career services department. Alumni from Simon School show little to no interest in helping out the school with their contacts within their respective industries. Dean of Simon School is not aggressive in engaging the senior alumni. I would discourage an international student from applying to Simon School because of the incredibly bleak job opportunities. -- Finance

s

One needs to be very proactive, forthcoming, persistent and determined as far as networking and getting job in the industry and role one desires, especially so if you are a career changer. So, I think it is not a school for people who give up early or are distracted with issues like bad economy, lesser alums, etc. Persistence and determination is the key here. -- Consulting

Simon teaches students to think through decisions that will add value to an organization. Plus, Simon has powerful professors who enable and empower students to think economically. Students walk away from Simon with the thinking tools that will help innovate their careers and industry. -- Finance

If my friends or colleagues are interested in studying finance, I don't think there is a better program in the world than Simon. If they are more interested in general management, I would suggest they consider other options. -- Finance

s

While I may not have chosen Simon initially, I can sit here today and say it was the best two years of my life, both academically and professionally. The school taught me the fundamentals of business and then kept challenging me to apply them. In addition, I was given the opportunity to demonstrate my ability to lead others. The ranking of the best business school is not, and should never be about test scores or starting salaries. The measure of a business school should be where its graduates are 5, 10, 15 and 20 years after they graduate. While our alumni base is small, it should be noted that we occupy very senior management positions in some of the largest and most well-respected companies in the world. -- Finance

Small size and exceptional professors allow great learning. Our Career Management Center has ample resources and a very personal staff dedicated to success. My counselor and I developed a relationship in which she nearly cried at both my graduation and my offer. The Dean of our school personally worked with my on developing my network and career path. -- Consulting

s

The education I received was top notch and the alumni network was very tight-knit and supportive. -- Marketing

The Simon School's class size is small and it allows the students to have a lot of face time with professors and career management staff. Additionally, I am much more capable to tackle real-life business decisions than I was before I began my MBA program. -- Operations

When I speak with friends and colleagues from other top programs, I find that my knowledge of corporate finance is often superior to theirs. Simon has given me the confidence and analytical strength to handle any problem at the corporate level, and I am very glad that I chose to study there. -- Finance

s

University of Rochester places great emphasis on research and academics but fails in the one aspect that matters most to students: Finding a competitive JOB!! The recruiters they line up are sub par and the career management center is a joke - they are either lazy or incompetent compared to other schools who rank lower than this school. -- Finance

Simon has excellent professors, and I couldn't imagine getting a better finance education anywhere else, but I'd be hard-pressed to recommend that someone come here unless this was the best (highest ranked) school they could get into. I say that because it's just too hard to get an internship or job in any facet of investment banking (research, sales/trading, investment banking) or asset management coming from Simon. Those who did, including myself, had to work extremely hard to get the positions we did. And, we had to create those opportunities ourselves. Our CMC provided minimal assistance. I'm pretty sure the job and internship search process isn't as hard at schools with higher rankings. -- Investment Banking

s

The Simon experience is absolutely top-notch. It is a world-class education, with a small enough group of students that you can really get to know them, the faculty and staff get to know you, and you have ample opportunities to network with and benefit from a dedicated group of successful alumni. The quantitative rigor of the program is excellent preparation for careers in business, and the core courses are geared toward preparing rising talent for today's challenges facing general management. -- Marketing

Despite being small in size, Simon has been able to attract students with very accomplished and diverse educational and professional backgrounds. Combine this student body with the first-class faculty we have in the areas of finance, marketing and operations, any student will receive an education inside and outside of the classroom that is second to none. -- Finance
