ALUMNI SUCCESS
"Pace is a veteran-friendly school... they provide a lot of resources for their students and alumni. I did a few internships; one was actually overseas in Moscow. The biggest wealth is actually people, both faculty and students, because students are definitely the future leaders."
- Grigoriy Isayev, Class of 2016, Senior Risk and Compliance Officer, HSBC
"Pace had a good reputation as a business school, especially for those looking to enter the accounting profession. I was able to apply my professional experience towards school, and vice versa. I completed many case studies, team assignments, and other things that my classmates and I dealt with at our jobs. My Pace education allowed me to broaden my skill set. As a result, I was promoted to chief financial officer, and eventually chief operating officer."
