One faces a similar challenge to the notoriously non-historically diverse and demanding environments of Investment Banking and Management Consulting. Although the remote setting and distance from an urban center can be challenging at times, the preparation for those two industries in particular at this school is second to none. I wanted a school that had a great academic environment as well as a good sense of community. Tuck is a place where the students are both passionate about their work and about each other. Tuck has more than met my expectations.
Business school is a big commitment.
Take the time to visit each school you're applying to because that is the best way to gauge whether you'll be happy there. Make the most of your visit. Discussions with students, particularly minority students, are the best way to determine if the environment is one that you will enjoy and in which you will feel comfortable. Know what you want to get out of business school. However, it's not for everyone.
