AAOB: What do you consider to be the most valuable aspect of the Owen MBA?
What do you consider to be the most valuable aspect of the Owen MBA? What is the most unique?
Thank you,

From Brad:
Same answer for both… the culture, hands down.
Owen students are competitive, but everyone is mostly focused on outside competition, rather than fighting amongst the ranks. This makes for a VERY tight knit community of students, staff, and faculty that will fight to help each other out.
We lift each other up instead of knocking each other down.

From Matt:
The difference between the most valuable thing and the best thing about an Owen MBA is a fine line. The answer to the latter is without a doubt the people.
You will be amazed by the folks you meet here. And they are all willing to help you. When I was waiting for an interview once, the previous interviewer came out and told me to be ready for technical questions. Since I had braced myself for it, I did well (and eventually got the internship). The people you go to school with are clearly the best thing about an Owen MBA. But the most valuable thing is the flexibility.
They start you with electives in the second mod, which is a huge bonus when looking for internships in those competitive places like investment banking or consulting. It is also a leg up on other schools who do not offer that. It’s also flexible in terms of what you can do. I have a corporate finance resume and a consulting resume. There is no one at Owen who will put you in a little box, assigned to a specific role.
