Student Testimonials

• "MIM will give you a chance to network with brilliant-minded individuals who will give you a different view of taking things in. Staying and living in NYC is another story, as each day is an adventure on its own. It is indeed true, that once you make it in NYC, you can make it anywhere; and MIM is a great partner to jumpstart that dream."
• "Studying at the Manhattan Institute of Management (MIM) was a truly remarkable experience. During my program at MIM, I have not only met great people from all around the world, but I have also gained valuable knowledge in many fields of business."
• "MIM was perfect for me. The staff is very dedicated to each student. The professors at MIM were also very skilled. They make sure that you like the class and get the most out of it. The most positive aspect of this experience was that before coming at MIM, I was extremely shy. I couldn't speak in front of people. Today, I'm much more assertive thanks to MIM."
