Definitely shines as a top 3 MBA program

REVIEWER IDENTITY VERIFIED by membership [?]

This review is for Wharton

Program Full Time MBA

Class of 2016

Experience during the program

The diversity and depth of the student body thanks to a large class size, caliber of the people and the sheer value of the brand make it worth every buck in terms of social and professional networks plus recruiting. It places a very high emphasis on student life and culture, which creates a strong (and a very social) community. Philly as a college city is also a lot of fun to live in as almost all students live in the the most active part of the city (downtown/Rittenhouse Square) so it allows you to move about the city and campus very easily. Furthermore, its proximity to NYC (2 hour bus ride) also is a huge plus when it comes to recruiting and/or traveling for social reasons.
