Country: Vietnam
Major: Master of Business Administration
Statement: One of the things I like about A-State is small classes. You will have more opportunities to ask questions, participate in discussion and get to know your professors and peers. Home to A-State, Jonesboro is considered as a college town but still gives you a feel of a big city. Cultural attractions are available throughout the city. If you love nature then this is a place where camping, fishing, hiking and boating are available. I have made many new friends and broaden my view as an individual through the ongoing events and activities at A-State such as job fairs, art and English classes, student clubs and social trips. The MBA program here gives me opportunities to gain connections, develop skills and grow my resume. I also appreciate the priority focus in the program on the development of lifelong learning as well as commitment to ethical behavior and social responsibility.

However, ASU, its professors and its curriculum has helped me to chase my passion of becoming academically and professionally achieved in the field of business. ASU would provide me with a strong advantage in the job market by bridging the gap between the academic and professional world of accounting.
