The unstinting effort of the staff paid off for me. The small alumni base is a drawback. The entrepreneurship program has to be one of the best, if not the best, in the country. Marketing offerings are surprisingly strong. What impressed me was the quality of support for those who needed help on the quant side.
Teamwork is emphasized and encouraged, a very important part of the experience.
I've made friends here that I have every intention of doing business with for decades to come. Everyone goes out of their way to give you help if it is needed. The quantitative approach is what brings everything together. Social life is sacrificed for research, programming, and computer time, but the sacrifice pays off in ideal jobs. In fact, the smartest person I met here had a zoology degree.
