Why DeGroote? I can sum it up in one word: community. Everyone in the program is there to support you reach your goals. 

Why an MBA? To me, an MBA is far more than a degree; it’s about building leadership and interpersonal skills. As someone who didn’t have a previous business education, I knew getting my MBA would help me grow and learn the skills needed to enhance my career.

What surprised you about DeGroote? The level of support I received from my classmates, faculty, and administration. The program is challenging and you will face hardships; however, you will never go through them alone. Everyone is welcoming, supportive and truly wants you to succeed.

What piece of advice would you give to anyone considering doing their MBA at DeGroote? Make yourself known – get to know your classmates personally, be engaged in the classroom, get involved in different clubs and activities, and most importantly, HAVE FUN!

Vivian Sadeh, MBA '22
During my undergraduate career, I enjoyed using multidisciplinary approaches to solve scientific problems. I saw the MBA as an opportunity to continue to learn and refine my skills. In addition, I believed that the program would enable me to build a network of mentors and peers and pivot into leadership roles.
Abena Oti-Henewa, MBA '25 Candidate
I chose DeGroote because of their amazing focus on community and building meaningful relationships. I first met representatives from DeGroote through a conference during my undergraduate degree and their level of care to my academic and career goals was a highlight. After a few years of check-ins and follow-ups, I knew that when I decided to apply, I would be applying to join a community that embraces the value of connection.
