MBA Student Testimonials

Carey Walley, Owner, Century 21 Master Key Realty says:

"The program is as close to real-world business as you'll get. From students with various backgrounds and all ages...this program teaches you how to think and act strategically in an organizational setting."

Curtis J. Maggard, Research Solution Consultant, Elsevier says:

"My initial reaction to getting an MBA was 'it's just a piece of paper.' I wanted to just have the title and career advancement possibilities that come with it. I couldn't have been more wrong. I've learned a lot of highly valuable information. I recently designed, launched, and brought a small product to market. Getting my MBA has given me a very clear picture of how a corporation is run and the confidence on how to navigate it."
