Amy Woodard

“With the fast track, you could go for seven weeks, then take a break in between. I could super crunch for a little while and have some downtime in between tracks. Plus, Boise State is an accredited college. In researching the MBA program, it fit exactly what I wanted to do. The online format was perfect.”

- Amy Woodard

Ruben Salas

“I did homework all of the time. When we went camping, I had cell service, so I would sit in my truck and write papers and finish up my discussion boards. Having the freedom to do my homework when I could and get it turned in on time helped me be successful in getting my MBA.”

- Ruben Salas

Carly Cash
