Student Testimonials
Noah Soberano
HBA ’17, MBA ’22
“I came back to the MBA program partly because I wanted to meet more people and take some courses I never got to take in undergrad, but also because I wanted to pivot into consulting, and I thought the MBA would be a really good spot to do that.”
Stephanie De Vincenzo
