Curry has great professors in the Management program. I received a great education. Curry fails its students as far as internships go. I transferred in my junior year and one of the things that drew to Curry was the internship program. I was halfway through my junior year and inquired about an internship opportunity only to find out CURRY DOES NOT HAVE ACCOUNTING INTERNSHIPS. Potential students if you don't care about this then by all means go there but as a graduate I am finding out you need experience. Also, I applied for an accounting position at Curry and did not get the job because I did not have any experience and the department in which I applied to did not want to train me. Also, Career Services is pretty poor on the advice they gave me. I had to rely on the college I got my associates at. Wouldn't recommend due to a poor job placement program. Quite ironic I'm going to be competing with now 2012 grads.

This says you graduated in 2000, what exactly would an internship from 12 years ago do for you now? Maybe I'm lost on that. I went to Curry and did more than one internship back in 2002 when it was not typical to do more than one, thing is nobody handed the internships to me, I went and got them on my own. Why is it the school's job to get a student an internship? It's up to you to apply and interview, a school may be able to line up the interview but internships tend to be competitive, unless your daddy works at the firm you need to jump through all the hoops just like I did. Go after it but don't blame the school because you failed to find it.
