SCHOOL COMMENTS
School Comments:
N/A

s

The program curriculum is alright but the profile of the students are outstanding and the chemistry among us is awsome. I believe it's this very point that distinguish our program from others, however, I don't think it's able to duplicate the same experience. -- Marketing

The school's location and brand name are of high value. The full-time MBA program is very intensive and it is an effective preparation for someone who wants to take on jobs that require graduate level degrees. -- Consulting

A few unprofessional faculty members were a turnoff. -- Operations

GW provides a uniquely collaborative learning environment that I would highly recommend. -- Consulting

George Washington University offers a niche program; it was a good fit for me but it's not for everyone. I found the small class size and the international orientation of the program to be very valuable. -- Nonprofit
