On Coming to Zicklin…
"The quality and character of the Accounting program compared to those of other schools in the New York area and cost of return expected upon completion of my degree."
On Zicklin's Curriculum…
"You have to work on group projects in almost every class. This means you get to learn a lot not only from the professors but also from your classmates."
On Zicklin Students…
"The diversity of cultures and variety of opinions on different subjects make the Zicklin School really unique as it affords one the opportunity to broaden one's view of the world on different levels."
On Zicklin Culture…
"The Zicklin culture is the urban, global, and go-for-it culture."
On Most Rewarding Experience at Zicklin…
"I took my very first class on August 29, 2005. Within a year of enrolling in the program, I received an offer to join Pricewaterhouse Coopers. Receiving an offer from a world-class company within that period has made my time and efforts undoubtedly rewarding."
On Hard Work…
"Being fortunate is part of success but luck only reinforces the hard work you put into life to be successful. In essence, luck builds on the foundations of hard work."
