Hi everyone! My name is Claire Hinkle, and I am just now starting my fourth week in the SMF Program at Fisher. In the first three weeks, I have taken a final, met with alumni, had several case discussions, completed a workshop with our Career Management Counselor, and am now beginning to ramp things up in the First Session Core Classes. So, while the undergraduate students have just finished syllabus week, we in the SMF program already feel at home here at Fisher. However, I realize that just a few weeks ago I was nervous to start the SMF program.

Hi, future Buckeyes. My name is Qingyuan Dong, and I am currently both a student and graduate ambassador of the Master of Accounting program at the Fisher College of Business. I grew up in Shanghai China before I came to THE Ohio State University. I graduated from Fisher with my BSBA degree in Finance, Marketing, and Economics and with Honors in Business Administration in May 2022. In addition to the world-class academic experience, I have also joined many student organizations and formed many meaningful relationships with both my professors and peers.

As summer started coming to an end, my email inbox started getting full of emails from all different departments at Ohio State. This made me feel anxious and a little overwhelmed but also very excited. I could not believe that after all the hard work that went into my application, the essays, the admission exams, and the interviews I was finally going to start my journey at Fisher College of Business.

As I enter my final weeks of the SMF program I wanted to look back and share some of the things I have learned this year.

As the semester is coming to an end, the MHRM graduating students are looking back on their time in the program and have some advice to give!
