In the world of business schools ranking, the Princeton Review is unique in that it surveys current students about their student experience and what makes their respective MBA program unique. I always enjoy reading these snippets as I find the sentiments to be truest expressions of the Xavier MBA experience - an experience that I am highly biased about and take great pride in supporting & delivering. Being the Assistant Dean for Graduate Business Programs at Xavier is the best career in the world because of the amazing students with whom I have gotten to know and see grow & succeed as people and especially as leaders!
Xavier University is known to local Cincinnatians as “the best business school in [the] city” and is known across the country for its “great entrepreneurship program,” so it is no surprise that Xavier's MBA students feel well-prepared to make an impact in the business world. “Xavier is a great university that has their students’ success as their first priority.” Those enrolled in the MBA program note that it is “highly collaborative as well as competitive” and feel that all curriculum fulfills one of the Jesuit school's main mission: “Cura Personalis: care of the whole person." Whether students are taking an online or hybrid course, they respond that “each course is designed around a framework intent on serving the individual.” Students know that if they need assistance or have questions, their “professors are willing to go the extra mile to help.” Ultimately, graduates leave confident in their career prospects given the exceptional education and support they’ve received at Xavier.
