While the show featured unforgettable music, it also offered surprising lessons that connect to concepts I’ve learned in business school at Fisher College of Business.
Life as a Master of Accounting (MAcc) student at The Ohio State University is fast-paced and demanding, with coursework, projects, and career planning requiring sharp focus and strong time management. Despite these challenges, maintaining balance by staying organized, building relationships, and embracing moments of fun is key to success.
The academic rigor of the program sharpens problem-solving skills and fosters collaboration, preparing students for high-pressure roles. Effective organization tools, like Google Calendar, help manage group projects, case studies, and CPA exam preparation.
Connecting with peers and faculty through networking events and team projects is equally important. These interactions build a support system and create professional relationships that extend beyond the program.
Physical activity provides a mental reset, whether through gym routines or attending Buckeye basketball and football games. Such activities reinforce the importance of self-care alongside academic pursuits. Embracing Columbus’s vibrant offerings, from sporting events to local restaurants, further balances the demanding schedule.
Ultimately, the OSU MAcc program is a stepping stone to future success. Staying focused on long-term goals, while prioritizing relationships and moments of joy, ensures students remain motivated and well-rounded amidst the chaos.
