Graduate Comments From The Survey
"This is a top notch program, very well structured in the class design, flexible schedule-wise, demanding academically. The only significant improvement area is the screening of applicants, probably 10% of the class did not have the experience or skills reflective of this type of high level program."
***
"Completing the E.M.B.A program was an absolutely life-changing experience for me. It will positively impact not only my career but my personal life as well. The faculty, staff and administration at Ohio State were outstanding, and the curriculum was right on the mark."
***
"The design of the courses push the book learning out of the class room and provide for excellent discussion of the cases as well as other experiences brought to the class from the students. The level and variety of experience of the students adds a real richness to the courses."
