Amazing Student Bloggers

Be sure to keep up with Saif, Tammy, and Patricia, our MBA student bloggers. Saif is interning with Mr. Price in South Africa. His blog is very entertaining as well as detailed about his daily activities and his amazing experiences. Tammy studied abroad in China and is interning at Kellogg. She is also participating in a couple of other activities which she details in her blog. Patricia is traveling quite a bit and writing about her journeys.

Saif's blog provides a summary of what a few of his Walton MBA classmates are doing this summer. These summer opportunities are quite unique to Walton and have proven to be quite valuable regarding our impressive employment statistics. Walton MBA students continue to do extremely well in the job market. In 2010, they were 83% employed at graduation, which was the best in the nation according to U.S. News & World Report. In 2011, they were 86% employed and were second in the nation. In 2012, the number is even higher. I don't know if I can release this info yet, so I'll hold onto it until I know it's safe.

Final application deadline for the Walton MBA is September 15. You can find our application requirements at http://gsb.uark.edu/admissions.asp. All funding has been awarded. In order to be eligible for funding, apply by April 1, 2013, for the class that will begin in January of 2014.

Read the student blogs to learn more about the Walton MBA and to determine if this would be a good fit for you.
