There鈥檚 no one reason Leeds students choose to pursue an MBA over an online alternative. Here are some of the reasons students and recent alumni felt an immersive grad program was the best fit for their professional goals.听
鈥淧art of it is commitment. I think committing to an MBA ensures you will follow through on your goals. It鈥檚 so easy to say you鈥檒l complete an online course, but for me, I鈥檓 more likely to follow through when I鈥檓 part of a robust program.鈥

鈥淗aving been serving overseas, I was looking not only to develop my business and professional skills, but almost to get back into American culture and society. The network I got in my MBA helped me do that.鈥

鈥淚f you get your MBA at Leeds, you鈥檙e not only pursuing a scholastic endeavor, you鈥檙e meeting many people that you鈥檙e potentially going to work with, because of how tightly the school is ingrained in the Boulder ecosystem.鈥

鈥淎ctively learning and working at the same time is immensely valuable, because I鈥檓 not just sitting on the sidelines learning this passively鈥擨鈥檓 actively applying the principles I鈥檝e learned in every single class that I鈥檝e taken.鈥
