Alumni Testimonials

I am immensely grateful to you for having sent me a letter of recommendation from your esteemed institution which I received last week. I’m sorry that I could not thank you earlier as I was a bit unwell. This letter greatly encourages me to work harder and I’m sure it will be of great help while applying for my under-graduation program in the USA. I once again thank you for the wonderful experience of attending the program conducted by Dan and look forward to more such programs with Columbia Business School in the near future.

FAQs

In addition to being a dynamic program teaching international pedagogy and giving an IVY league education to students in India, the Summer program differs from others as we also have an exclusive line-up of guest speakers from the industry and corporate India to share their experiences and journey with students and visit to an incubating centre where many young entrepreneurs brain storm and make their dreams a reality. The program is designed to be practical and experiential rather than pure theory and that is our USP.
