>>BINA BALDWIN MBA '19: I was looking for a change to pivot in
my career and I thought an MBA would
give me a leg up on the competition and
give me an ability to go to the next

>>RICHARD CRUZ MBA '19: As a profession, I'm an accountant
and being an accountant is
very black and white.
The MBA allows you to get that broader
thinking pattern that you need to be
able to take a company to another level.

>>BINA BALDWIN MBA '19: I picked Iona for my MBA because it was
convenient and because I think it is a
name that's recognized in this area and
around the country and I think that adds
to the value of the degree.

>>RICHARD CRUZ MBA '19: One of the things about Iona
is that, one, it was the
environment. With those professors it's
almost like it's you and the professor,
there's no one else around. When the
professor teaches it's kind of like
they're teaching solely to you.

>>BINA BALDWIN MBA '19: Take advantage of the professors.
They come with a wealth of experience
and they're always happy
to help you after class.

>>RICHARD CRUZ MBA '19: Whether it's a professional goal, whether
it's a social goal,  they will do whatever
they can to help you achieve that goal.

>>BINA BALDWIN MBA '19: Either the online classes, as well as
classes in person, I think it was a
really good combination. It was a great
way for me to get to meet people and
also do it in a convenient way for my
life, that fits my life.

>>RICHARD CRUZ MBA '19: Within a month of getting my MBA,
I've already been given a couple of offers.
It's helped dramatically.

>>BINA BALDWIN MBA '19: When people look at my resume,
or they look at my LinkedIn,
having MBA next to your name
gives you more credibility,
it gives me more gravitas.

>>RICHARD CRUZ MBA '19: I really do feel that Iona,
within a matter of years,
will be a global powerhouse.

>>BINA BALDWIN MBA '19: They offer a lot more than just a degree.
You can get a degree anywhere,
but Iona offers you a lot of
other resources that you can
use after you leave Iona.
I think that is value that
you cannot purchase.
