Academics
Elon Universitys Martha and Spencer Love School of Business has a great reputation as a specialized MBA for full-time working professionals. Students praise Elons leadership philosophy, learning culture, and great program flexibility. A small university in a small town, Elon offers small class and program size in which the average class is fifteen, and large classes are thirty. Elon focuses on engaged learning, top quality of content taught, [and] values-based leadership. . . . Its why their reputation is growing so rapidly, one student notes.
There is nothing that students rave about more than the top-notch and amazing administration who all work very well together and make you feel at home. The program is administered with the touch of a five-star hotel, one happy student reports. Especially singled out for praise is student liaison extraordinaire Judy Dulberg, the MBA Program Coordinator who is the glue for the whole operation. Everyone here is super friendly and always there to help any time of day. As at many universities, the professors vary but most are understanding and helpful. The professors are open with their time and always willing to meet outside of class, and most of them have over twenty years experience in their fields. Professors bring this real business experience to class, and courses themselves are largely current event and real world driven. Professors offer challenging work, but are also always there to help.
All in all, Elon offers a special, tight knit community in central North Carolina. The greatest strengths of Elon include the culture, the people, the campus cleanliness, and overall safety. This is a school where professors know students by name. Even Deans know students by name. As one student says, Elon fosters an atmosphere deeply rooted in supporting one another through team building activities.
