“If earning your MBA is something you want to do, do it. Put your heart into it, and know that you can achieve it. UL Lafayette will always have a lasting impression on me because of the experience I had.”
“I didn’t feel like I had to give up so much of my life to get my MBA. I could take my time with it. I could take one class every eight weeks and not feel overwhelmed and really be able to soak in all the education and do my homework and really feel like I’m learning something.”
“I always tell the kids I coach that it’s OK if you want to get into the workforce, but you have to get an education. Whether it’s online, on campus, I don’t care. Just get an education.”
“The classes were very informational. I’d be able to pull up what I was doing with our clients at work and understand exactly what we were doing and why were doing it because of the classes I took.”
"There are not many things you get to do as big as this. Enjoy the experience, take it slow, and ask questions when they come up because UL Lafayette has a huge support system. That’s one of the reasons I decided to go back.”
"Whatever your situation is, online learning will make it easier; you just have to keep working hard. The best part about it all is that no matter where you live, you’ll get to be a Ragin’ Cajun."
“You’re going to get as much out of the MBA program as you put into it. If you’re putting in the bare minimum, you’re going to get the bare minimum in return. But if you engage and get into the discussion forums and be involved with the people in your classes, you will have a network of people that you’ll be able to connect with even after you finish.”
“Online worked so much better for me, because I can sit in a classroom and not get anything from it. But put me in a curriculum, tell me to go do the work for myself and do the reading, and I can pick up on it. But compared to in-person classes, you have to be a go getter, or it's just not going to come to you.”
“You think that online, you’re not going to have those interactions, but I actually had great interactions with all of my professors and other students as well. I’ve made connections with people that I still talk to today that I’ve never met in person.”
