Rohith, thanks for stepping in. Can you share how your experience has been? Why you chose Smith and if your expectations have been met? Also how has your experience been as an international student
Eseoghene, My experience so far at Smith has been very good. I wanted to join an MBA that's under 40 ranking and wouldn't end me up with ton load of debt. Smith was the best option for me of all the admits i received. Best i got was Kenan Flagler but that was too costly for me.
Smith has the mix of experiential learning and immense encouragement for entrepreneurship, which was my primary need apart from afordability. Porfessors here are very much open to discuss topics from out of the box mindset and infact such discussions are rewarded with better grading.
As an internation student, the one aspect that's bit diffucult is landing an internship. But having conversation with my friends in other top universities, things are no different in top univs too. It's basically the recession affect.
Given the uncertain market, I'd suggest everyone to think twice about investing huge $$ into a degree. Choose wisely!

Hey IME2024, beet farms are ruling here
Coming to your question, let me be honest - the market is un-certain here in US, especially for international students. It's just not with Smith MBA but with other top MBA programs too. With current uncertainity, companies are reluctant to take candidates whom they would have to sponsor visa in future (internation students). There are few individual who did land into internships, I'd have to wait and see how the conversion into full-time turns out to be.
Some of my current 2nd years got full-times (irrespective of whether they did internship or not) and their offers seem to be quite good.
