“You have to make an investment in yourself. Getting my MBA at Wake Forest, and the students and faculty I was exposed to, coupled with the flexibility of the program and the ability to go at night and work a full-time job, it was all worth it.”

“The Wake Forest MBA program was the perfect program for me. The faculty, my peers, the way the classrooms and sessions were conducted – it just made me feel like I was at home. So I will always tout this program – it’s helped me so much personally and has helped me become more confident in my career and a better leader overall.”


Alyssa Bowker

“Everybody in the program worked full-time so the scenarios weren't hypothetical. People were either sharing something that happened already in their previous jobs - or a real-life problem that they were having at the time that we needed to talk through, while the professor was guiding the conversation and sharing their experiences and what they've done in similar situations. That was just the coolest experience.”
