 " I received my undergraduate degree from VCU and am now back to get my masters. The Brandcenter program is very collaborative and focuses on projects rather than taking tests or writing papers.

The professors all have extensive real-world experience that they bring to the classroom. Unlike in my undergraduate experience, most of my professors have been full time rather than adjunct.

The campus is super clean and the buildings are mostly new at this point. It's in the heart of Richmond and is surrounded by a ton of great restaurants and coffee shops. "

 " I got my MBA here. It was a great program and I enjoyed my time in it. I did it while I worked full time and it was really accommodating for my schedule. I was also able to do the focus I wanted in Information Resource Management. The professors were all great especially once you got into the higher level required courses. Course work covers a wide variety of business cases and issues. Would recommend it to anyone who is interested in pursuing a Master's in Business "

 " VCU has an urban campus in the heart of the city and provides a very different college experience in comparison to a closed campus or college town. Most students live and eat off campus which can make it more expensive. People have to go further out of their way to make friends and focus because of the nature of city life, but there are much better internship and volunteer opportunities because of the university location and social standing within the community.
