"The Sloan Program is different. The experience is familial. The students are worldly. The opportunity changes you."
—Jim Roth, MS '08
"I’m here with a remarkable collection of peers of similar age and experience. What was unexpected for me was the international aspect! Although it is advertised, the international diversity is something that has continued to amaze and inspire me. Now I have a set of friends from around the world. Such a welcome surprise."
—Robert Jungerhans, MS '08
The Sloan Program is just one of the academic choices offered at the Stanford Graduate School of Business.
