George Zavala MSBA 26
I chose UC Davis because I completed my undergraduate degree here, so I knew I was attending a university that holds students to high expectations but also provides the resources they need to excel.
I also chose the MSBA program because it is based in San Francisco. The network and connections that come from being in the hub of technology are likely a big reason the program ranks so highly in ROI.
