My First Impression

I embarked upon my MBA experience at BYU with much trepidation and anticipation. After all, this would be my first time in a graduate program, and I wasn’t sure what to expect. However, as I spent the first two weeks in orientation, and the subsequent weekend on the OB/HR rafting trip, there are several things that have stood out to me.


First and foremost, I have been amazed at how much time and effort the 2nd year MBA students put into making my experience as painless as possible. My Sherpa (second year mentor) has been especially helpful in assisting me as I make decisions that will influence the rest of my life. The alumni network at BYU has also been an outstanding resource. As I have reached out to former graduates I have been very grateful for the advice and information that they have given to help me through this journey.


My fellow classmates have also proved to be amazing people. It is already apparent to me that my peers are among the brightest MBA students in the country. I feel that the relationships I am establishing now will endure for life.


Lastly, I have been very impressed with the faculty in the program. The professors are world class, and it is readily apparent that they really do care for the students. After only two weeks in the BYU MBA program, it is not hard to see why it is among the top business schools in the nation.
