What a Difference a Tutor Makes - LFGSM Tutors Needed
The new Daytime MBA program at Lake Forest Graduate School of Management fits the schedules, needs, interests and even the fears of stay-at-home parents who are planning to re-launch their careers.
It's about faculty who understand their talents and experience. It's about classmates who are as smart and ambitious as you are. It's about lessons from the real world, not from dusty textbooks or business consultants who have never run an organization. It's about volunteer tutors who work one-on-one with students to master Accounting knowledge.
In the end, it's about fast-tracking the Chicago area's best and brightest through a two-year MBA program that will have far-reaching impact on their careers, their companies and their families.

CNN Money (via Poets and Quants) calls LFGSM's MBA program a "remarkable deal in a high-priced locale" and mentions that we have one of the largest executive alumni networks in the under $50k price category.
LFGSM has always prided itself on providing a remarkable MBA value in a practical, actionable way that generates measurable results for its alumni. Our mission-driven approach and our not-for-profit status make this possible. Being heralded by the national media for delivering on that educational mission makes us proud.
