I considered multiple other business schools, but I am very happy that I chose Kelley - it has greatly exceeded my expectations. The best part about Kelley is my classmates. All of my classmates are very friendly, fun, and intelligent. They are always quick to help out with anything that I could ever need (homework help, interview prepping, etc.). Everyone is very social as well, with many opportunities to join clubs and participate in other social activities. Further, the class size of about 150 means that I actually am able to get to know everyone in my class and build lasting connections with them.
The Academy system at Kelley is a game-changer for its students. Every 1st-year is assigned an Academy based on your area of interest (Consumer Marketing, Business Marketing, Finance, Capital Markets, Consulting, or Supply Chain). Once in an academy, you meet with your fellow academy classmates every Friday of your first semester, learning from some of the most experienced and accomplished academy directors around. These academies are designed to teach you all about internships and careers in your particular field. You learn from recent Kelley MBA grads who have been successful at companies that you are interested in, and you also network with these recent alumni. All of this preparation and networking really helps you once interviews come around!
Kelley's Graduate Career Services is constantly rated as one of the top MBA career services programs in the country - and for good reason. The career services team is with you all the way throughout your process, from the first day you step on campus and start discovering your career path through the Me, Inc program, to deciding which of your (likely many) offers to take - they are there with tons of industry knowledge and advice. They also have great relationships with many companies in all disciplines, so tons of companies participate in Kelley's on-campus recruiting process and are interested in specifically hiring Kelleys to fill their positions.
