For alumna and member of Poets & Quants’ MBAs to Watch Class of 2022 Jazz Naglee (MBA ’22), the UF MBA Full-Time program’s small class sizes drew her to the program, which also helped as she worked with the career services team to find the right job opportunity for her interests and expertise.
“The full-time program is filled with so many bright individuals with interesting backgrounds, and the small size enabled me to build meaningful relationships with almost everyone,” she said. “Additionally, it allowed for more individualized attention and support from Business Career Services during the post-MBA job search process, which I found to be a unique benefit compared to other MBA programs I considered.”
Naglee’s individualized experience enabled her to achieve personal growth she can take into her career at Cigna.
“I expected to grow professionally and build business acumen, but I didn’t expect such a transformation in personal growth,” she said. “For example, I have improved the way I articulate my thoughts, approach problems, and balance my time. The personal growth was of the many great, unexpected surprises I’ve enjoyed in pursuit of my MBA.”
