But there is value in being intentional with supporting the experiences of your graduate students and online learners as well. Gathering student satisfaction data is one way to understand the current student experience and to identify priorities for improvement. While these student populations tend to be pretty satisfied (compared with traditional, undergrad, on-campus students), there is always room for improvement base

Wondering about MBA interview etiquette? Although a lot has changed since the pandemic, there are some MBA interview guidelines that remain the same. Choose in-person, if possible. In the era of zoom, you will almost always be given the option of having a virtual interview, or an in-person one. Although the virtual option might feel like an easier, lower-stakes choice, I strongly encourage you to meet with your interviewer in-person.

If your financial aid offer is lower than what you were expecting, requesting more financial aid – read, ask politely, is an option. Financial aid packages can be flexible, so don’t discount the college based on their initial financial aid award.

Of course, the short answer is it is better to step up and get an A but that is probably not the answer you were looking for here.
