Dear Prospective Student,
The decision about which graduate program to choose is among the most important and most difficult decisions you will ever make. You have only one chance to make the right decision, and will receive much advice--some of it conflicting--on what’s best for you.
At Fisher, our goal is to help you make this important decision correctly—to help you work through complex and confusing choices to make a decision that enables you to reach your full potential and provide the best opportunity to achieve your educational and career goals.
This concern for the individual is one of the most consistent features of the Fisher MBA program. Although we are among the most selective leading MBA programs, our selectivity is based on many factors, not just your GMAT score. This inclusive approach enables students with a broad range of qualifications to be admitted, allowing you to be a part of a small, elite program where diversity enables you to learn as much from your peers as from your professors, and where ethics always underlies the decision-making skills you’ll learn in class.
In the classroom, our individualized approach enables you to study with professors who actually know who you are. When your unique talents and individual plans require more specialization, you have the option to study independently or to select classes from over 100 other graduate programs at The Ohio State University. You will have every opportunity to learn what you need to in order to realize your dreams.
Outside the classroom, our program to support leadership and professional development helps you to sharpen your professional skills and gain the ability and confidence to become a leader in tomorrow’s global business environment, enhanced by working alongside the brightest classmates the world has to offer and taking advantage of many opportunities to travel and study abroad.
Along the way, your personal career counselor will guide you in your search for your perfect job. Our record of career placement success—among the best in the industry—makes us confident that you can be among our many success stories. From start to finish, the focus is on you. Thank you for spending some time getting to know us better. We look forward to the chance to get to know you better, too.
David Smith
