Student Perspectives
“[Explore Wharton] was a wonderful experience and helped me gain a clearer perspective, not only on why I would like to attend Wharton, but also on why I want to obtain an MBA. The people at Wharton are exceptional. I was impressed with their confidence and commitment to community above self.”
-Attendee, Explore Wharton 2007
"When I visited Wharton for Explore Wharton, I was astounded by the caliber and drive of the students and their enthusiastic participation in the event. This truly showed me how much they believe in the program and want others to share in its excellence. The students I met were among the brightest and most talented in the world, yet were humble and down-to-earth, and genuinely enjoyed learning from one another."
- Geralyn Villaflor, WG‘08
