Required Exams for Admission

TOEFL (110)

Overall a good experience and I got a good exposure too but living in San Francisco is expensive and I would rather choose a university in Texas or some other state and pay less when I have to work by myself for getting a job.

Course Curriculum

9

Both industrial exposure and research experience was given but since the program is of 11 months, each course has to be completed within 7 weeks which is a short time. It's fast paced and a lot of knowledge has to be gained by yourself.

Faculty

10

Dr. Stephan Kraus, Dr. Ricardo Villareal, and now Program Director- Dr. Patino are really good and will help in coaching you outside the courses as well. They're all well-versed and knowledgeable; also have a huge network of great professionals.

Campus Life

10

This classes for this program doesn't happen in the main campus, which is a bummer. The downtown campus is just a building but equipped with all the basic facilities. The main campus, however, is huge and has gym, pool, recreation hall, library etc. There is a lot happening in the main campus including extracurricular activities, movie nights. Graduate Marketing Association is one of the club that the student can join at the downtown campus.

Placement

5

You have to take care of that yourself. No companies visit. You have to apply to at least 300-600 companies in order to land a job.

Accommodation

Off Campus
6

$900-1500, living in close proximity of the downtown campus is feasible as the classes happen in the evenings as well. Commuting in SF is easy via Muni.
