有兩個在我寫"Chapman University"之後寄信問有關於MBA及why我選Chapman...
乾脆就一起發表看大家的感想如何

Of course, GMAT, GPA, Essay, 工作經驗都可以從留學版找,
but我想發表如何找一間是和你的學校:
這篇文章有點針對已在美學生申請MBA....

So,
我覺得第一件事是去學校走走,
看看它們的環境, 學生及教授的interactions, and 工作人員得態度
真的, MBA 在Southern CA除了UCLA and USC, 其他學校在其他地方都不太"出名"尤
其東部. 對他們來說 UCI MBA and UC Riverside 都差不多, 除非真得有心去看排名.

所以重點是你要什麼, 有太多亞洲人擠破頭進TOP 25 MBA programs
但到了Class participation和Networking時都變成啞巴....個人感覺真的
事太浪費那些好學校的資源了! 像我現在教授就有說過一句話: "MBA學生應該多花點
時間在Networking上, 而不是整天想如何拿A. 當大部分MBA的人都至少有B以上的程度,
Networking是取決妳到底有沒有工作的關建"

再來是Top 25 and 小學校的好處及壞處:
Top 25 的教授and學生都是一流, 所以素質高, offer課程也多, alumni的force也很強
但同時競爭壓力也相當大...非常難讓別人信服你and讓你自己standup for rest of
group. 加上如果你neworking能力又沒比別人強, 準備畢業後打包回台吧...
我有一個朋友在UCLA part-time MBA, 他被整個team 排擠因為他工作年齡低(也7年ㄝ!)
別人不服氣他當team leader, 整個team到他自己願意讓位之後才willing跟他交談

小學校ㄋ... 像Chapman, Pepperdine, Loyola Marymount的教授資格其實都相當不錯
但學生overall素質較低, offer課程也沒像UCLA多.
但好處是同學之間願意做study group的意願較高讓大家都越來越好
小學校優點也是能讓你的聲音容易聽見...一些多花的時間and經力能讓自己可能成為
club的社長even MBAA President. 都對你未來就業有幫助

So..."重點是你要什麼"

Top25跟其他列出來學校相比,networkin就沒那麼重要了
因為差距實在太大。除非你有身份,不然再怎麼交際應酬

大部分台灣留學生不像您有身份,如果沒有Top20,還是
留在台灣比較強。不值得花四百萬到美國networking
