"It was daunting because when I first started the MBA without any business background, I thought, 'Oh, I'll probably take one class and quit.' Now, I look forward to each class. They're all different, but it's not so hard that you can't grasp the concept."

"I have been able to balance my school and work life, so it has been very positive in that regard. I really like the fact that taking the classes online affords me the opportunity to study out in the field when I travel."

"When I was in the MBA program, we actually looked into the logic and the qualitative aspects of, 'Okay, here's the math, but does this decision actually make sense?' As a business, there are always other factors, so that was really good for me."

"With the industry I'm in, which is finance, and my job track, which I have a pretty good idea of what that's going to be in the future, I felt like it was a good time to go back and refresh some skills and learn some of the new information that's out there—especially when I saw the data analytics opportunity. That is used very heavily in our industry."

"The MBA definitely helped me land my job... I know there were several other candidates when I interviewed for this position. I believe that MBA helped set me apart–especially having it at such an early age."

"We frequently travel to the Caribbean. In fact, I was able to go out of the country two or three times during my 10 months at USI. I never missed an assignment and was never late. If I can do it, anybody can do it."

– Sam Suiter | Read More

"I like engaging with people, face to face. That was a reservation I had about doing the MBA program online but there were not any issues. You still have that clear communication if you have questions for your teaching assistant or professor – they are just a phone call or email away. The program was absolutely manageable, and I enjoyed the flexibility of it the most."

– Anthony Gregory | Read More

"I did not know where I wanted to go for my MBA prior to going to USI for undergrad, but I knew that it was something that I wanted to do... I fell in love with the university and the faculty. It was an easy place to stay. I love it so much."
