Experience during the program

McCombs has been an unforgettable experience. The students, professors, and the staff are the perfect combination; getting the job done with intellect and rolling-up-your-sleeves. This unique culture at Texas is great for those wanting to get into tech, entrepreneurship, and the traditional routes of consulting and banking.
The best part about McCombs is three-fold. First, the McCombs MBA is a smaller class than a lot of top-20 MBA programs. This allows you to develop relationships with other students and has the spirit of a close-knit family. Secondly, the McCombs MBA is housed within the greater University of Texas at Austin. This adds the robust resources and opportunities of a large nationally recognized research university to the McCombs MBA. And lastly, Austin. If you've never been, you must visit. And once you do you will understand. The weather is great (it's January and it is 60-70 degrees this week), the night life and music scene is never ending, the outdoors are beautiful and accessible, and Austin fits the single student and the student with a family. Altogether, the Texas MBA at McCombs is the right decision for anyone looking for a bright and diverse student body, a down to earth culture, and the best location of a top-20 school.
