When Caroline arrived at Rice Business, she was a nurse with no formal business background. Through the MBA, she gained the knowledge and confidence to pursue a career in consulting, ultimately accepting an offer from McKinsey & Company. Along the way, she found a close-knit community of classmates who became lifelong friends and trusted advisors. The Rice MBA surrounds you with people who will support you personally and professionally, long after graduation.
“The Rice MBA made me feel so confident in my career path, and gave me a business vocabulary that I didn't have before. It's two years where you really get to focus on yourself and grow. I learned to solve problems at a larger scale and understand customer needs. It's paid off really well.”
— Caroline Metts, Rice MBA
