Dupree has one of the best employment records of the major NEF schools. The ratio of recruiters to graduating students varies from year to year but is often close to 1:1.

One aspect of the application that is stressed is work experience:

"While we do not require work experience we strongly recommend at least one to two years of professional work experience. The average student enrolled in our program has approximately four years of work experience."

It is best known for (surprise, surprise) Tech, entrepreneurship, and Operations.

GATech MBA contact office is the most unresponsive that I have seen so far, even after repeated attempts they dont' respond on common ques like %of Stu getting fin aid etc.

So take care on that front.
