STUDENT SPOTLIGHT
The program made me feel that I, as an individual, was important and not just another number for their statistics. Being at Katz for a year now, I feel just as passionately that the Katz faculty, staff, and alumni care about the individuals that they work with on a personal level.
I chose Katz because of the world-class faculty and students: the professors here are well-versed in their fields, passionate about teaching, and want to see their students succeed academically and professionally; the students are dedicated to excellence and form an excellent professional network.
