LASA Fuqua Friday
Testimonials:
"Choosing Fuqua as my Business School was an excellent decision. I knew from the beggining that I wanted to work in Investment Banking and having all major banks recruiting on campus made the job search very accessible. At the same time, coming from Buenos Aires, a city with a population of 10 million, I was looking forward to studying in a small city with a strong academic accent. Durham was great in this sense for my wife and me. Last but not least, the environment among students is what is most unique about the school. Students are able to combine their own personal ambitions and challenges with a strong sense of cooperation and team spirit."

"I visited Fuqua before applying and I loved the place, the people and the culture. Now I feel proud that I made the best decision in coming here. First, I have found the most valuable people. It is very difficult to explain but once you are here you can feel the Team Fuqua environment all over the place: An environment where people are always willing to help and a unique atmosphere where it is incredible easy to make a lot of friends. Secondly, I became even more interested when I knew about the great opportunities that Fuqua had in entrepreneurship and venture capital. Fuqua has given me the opportunity to learn a lot about entrepreneurship by participating in several entrepreneur competitions, including the Duke Start-up Challenge. I also had the chance to do a mentored study with Duke’s Small Business and Technology Development Center, where I mentored other start-ups. Finally, my wife and I were very interested in living in an adventurous place as Durham, where we could do a lot of outdoor activities. So far, we have done primitive camping, rafting, skiing, hiking, and many other open air activities. We just love our life at Duke!
