Tuck Voices

“At Tuck, I have found that the curriculum lends itself to maximum learning. I love the real-life applications and cases in classes as mechanisms to learn and apply the material. Personally, I have loved building relationships with the professors, whether through group lunches or office hours, and I have also found my study group an important part of my learning experience that I continually lean on. Everyone wants you to succeed, and you really get to know your classmates and professors in the learning process.”
