At Golisano Institute for Business & Entrepreneurship, we offer a unique and innovative approach to business education designed to prepare students for real-world challenges and opportunities.
Here are the top reasons to consider Golisano Institute as your choice for post-secondary business education:
Networking Opportunities
Success in business is often about who you know as much as what you know. Golisano Institute offers unparalleled networking opportunities through our "Speaking from Experience" series, where local business owners and industry leaders share their insights and success stories every Wednesday. This provides students with direct access to Rochester's best and brightest, allowing them to expand their professional network and gain valuable connections that can open doors to future career opportunities.
Affordability
We understand that the cost of education is a significant factor for many families. That's why Golisano Institute offers high-quality business education at an affordable price. With tuition set at $8,900, which includes courses, books and technology, we provide financial assistance and flexible payment options to make our program accessible to all students. The return on investment is evident through the career and internship opportunities, networking wins and personal growth our students experience during their time with us.
Sense of Community
At Golisano Institute, we pride ourselves on fostering a tight-knit community where every student feels welcomed and valued. Our small class sizes, with no more than 25 students, create an intimate learning environment where students can build deep connections and engage in meaningful conversations that enhance their educational experience. Each student can contribute uniquely to our community, leaving a lasting impact on both their peers and the program itself.
Entrepreneurial Environment
Golisano Institute is a hub of entrepreneurial energy and innovation. Our students and staff share a growth mindset driven by creativity and a desire to improve continuously. We encourage self-improvement and career development, creating an environment where big ideas thrive and actionable tips are shared daily. The collaborative atmosphere fosters a strong sense of camaraderie as students and staff celebrate wins, lessons, and breakthroughs together.
Accelerated Timeframe
We recognize that students today lead busy lives and need an education that fits their schedules. Our program offers an accelerated path to business success, allowing students to complete 32 courses within two years. With a daily schedule from 8:45 a.m. to 1 p.m., students can dedicate their mornings to enhancing their business acumen while having afternoons free for personal projects, family time and social activities. The intentional course structure ensures that students are challenged appropriately, gaining a deep understanding of complex ideas that can be immediately applied outside the Institute.
