Why choose Wisconsin MBA?
I really loved the specialization approach. I knew I wanted to go into marketing so the specialization track really ensured that I would be well set up for a future in brand marketing.

Advice:
The specializations truly are unlike any other programs across the country. By being in specializations, there are unique opportunities to be more knowledgeable than others at different programs who may have a general business approach. You not only gain a strong foundation through the core, but each class in your specialization better prepares you for the future.

Fun fact:
I am Latvian American with three of my four grandparents immigrating from Latvia. My little sister and I still speak the language fluently and we sing in large cultural festivals in the U.S., Canada and Latvia.
