In addition, Rollins College is a full participant in the Yellow Ribbon Program which means that all eligible veterans (and dependents) who are admitted into any of Rollins' programs will receive enough grant aid from the Veterans Administration and Rollins College to pay the entire cost of their tuition and fees. Eligible veterans will not need to take out loans or find other funding sources for a Rollin's education.
The Crummer School also waives the application fees for any military personnel who have been active within three years prior to applying to the MBA program.
Description of Learning Environment for Students:
The vision of the Crummer Graduate School of Business at Rollins College is to be a recognized leader in graduate business education with the reputation for producing highly successful managers and leaders. The Crummer School is one of the smallest top ranked business schools in America. Our largest classes only have about 40 students, and the typical elective course has 20 to 25 students-much smaller than many other top-ranked schools. At the Crummer School you get to know your professors and your classmates, developing professional associations and personal friendships that will last for the rest of your life. Each MBA class moves through the program as a cohort, sharing the same educational experience. Individual participation in classroom discussions is emphasized, as well as working in group study teams. Your team of diverse professionals is assigned during orientation and remains together throughout most of the program. Teams meet outside of regular classes to prepare for group presentations, study for tests, and act as support systems by helping members succeed in accomplishing the necessary assignments. This team-based approach has lead to Crummer having one of the highest graduation rates in the country.
Faculty:
Rollins MBA faculty members hold the highest degrees in their field and the school only hires at the associate or full faculty level. The school does not hire freshly minted PhDs into tenured track faculty positions. For students this means that the person teaching your class has had extensive experience teaching MBA students. This is enhanced by the fact that our faculty only teach on the graduate level, so truly understand the needs of MBA students. The school also never uses teaching or graduate assistants in the classroom environment. Crummer faculty have written more than 90 textbooks that are used throughout the world and many of the Crummer faculty have won awards for their innovative teaching and research methods.
