University of Virginia

College is a great time to find yourself and grow independent.

The University of Virginia is steeped in history and has such a rich culture to be a part of. The professors are incredible, the community is strong, and the town is lovely.

I love Darden! Everyone is so friendly and always willing to help each other. The living costs is not the most expensive one but the school is expensive. The education is amazing. I'm learning everyday! But it's super intense! We have many things to do all the time! No time to rest! hehe Charlottesville is beautiful! I cant complain eheh!

Three things: Case Method, the Darden community ( Trust the process! ) and the world-class, extremely involved faculty. You do work harder than probably everyone else on the top 20, but you receive support from every corner, from second years dropping by with snacks and breakfast biscuits and ice-cream sandwiches, to Career Development staff scheduling mock interviews with you on Sundays. And Charlottesville's charm cannot be overstated.

Pros: Amazing people and academic rigor define the Darden experience. My teachers truly care about my development as a business leader and person. And unlike some other top business programs, I am challenged to learn by my classmates each and every day. I am being pushed and I'm growing. Cons: the Darden brand name is not as well known as it should be

It is a tremendous amount of work, but the best MBA academic experience in the world.

I wouldn't choose any other school for my MBA. Fantastic people, education, and job opportunities. Collaborative and family-like.

Diverse culture and the case study method were the pros for me! The financial aid is limited which can be difficult for students from Non-profit backgrounds to pursue.
