I have loved nearly everything about the program at Merage. While it’s likely for most students to say that their favorite experience was the international residential, I will say that my favorite experience is – generally speaking – the extra activities beyond schoolwork and class time. While I do love to learn and often enjoy attending class I really value the many networking activities. The distinguished speaker series is one of my favorites as I find it fascinating to listen to local CEOs of major companies impart their wisdom on us. I also enjoy the socials held multiple times a quarter as it’s nice to talk to my fellow students (and professors and staff) outside of the class setting. My favorite experience and what I think I will remember the most about Merage is my involvement in the school.
I thought that I would just come to class then go home and that would be it. However, I have liked the program so much that I try to attend as many non-class events as possible. Yes both residentials were fun but my favorite experience is just the general extra-curricular activities offered by not only the program but also organized by other Merage students who also enjoy spending time with fellow classmates.
