Rank 16: University Of Verginia - Darden School Of Management
Immersive
learning experience is what this top 25 rated program of the
University of Virginia provides. It is quite a good choice and has a
small and intimate learning experience by virtue of its small class
size of 318. The women candidates form 31% of the class while the
numbers of countries represented are 34. The average age of entry
into MBA at Darden remains 28 and 100% of the candidates have full
time work experience. The application essays are on predictable
lines and the third one is usually an interesting subject
altogether. Early birds win out on a chance for 30 scholarships
which range from $10K per year to full tuition.Deadlines
