Student Testimonials
Noah Soberano
MBA Direct ‘22 Candidate
“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
MBA Direct ‘22 Candidate
“People have bigger voices than they’ve ever had because of how they can connect with one another now, and I think Ivey provides tools we can use when we need to speak against injustices in the workplace and give minority groups a voice.”
Zander Taylor
MBA Direct ‘22 Candidate
““Ivey puts you into a lot of situations where you can try things and there’s not much to lose, so you can learn about yourself, get feedback and figure out what’s working for you or where you need to improve.”
Olivia George-Parker
MBA '21
“I see pursuing my MBA as an excellent way to upgrade my strategic thinking and decision-making skills, while also expanding my network. I consider my undergraduate studies at Ivey as one of my most formative life experiences.”
