“I was looking for ways to become a more well-rounded, proficient banker – and found the perfect fit with The Graduate School of banking at LSU. And while it was a significant investment of time and other valuable resources, it was the best investment I could make in developing my skill sets. The case studies, amazing professors and guest lectures, combined with the bank simulation – created the perfect learning environment for me to absorb and take that knowledge back to my bank. Above all of that, the people I was able to form meaningful and enriching relationships with will last my entire career. I have contacts all over the country (and Mexico) that I can turn to for advice. I couldn’t say that 3 years ago. This program was the best decision I, and my bank, could have made for my personal and professional development.”

“Making the commitment to attend GSB at LSU was a very wise choice for me, and one that I would recommend anyone in the banking industry to make. It truly is a commitment. Going into my freshmen year I really did not know what to expect, even though I spoke with several graduates of the school. Nothing I can say here will prepare you for the level of instruction GSB offers! I must say I was surprised by the intensity, and the amount of information given to us in each class. The content of the classes are very broad, I came away with a much higher understanding of the banking industry as a whole. I heard on numerous occasions fellow classmates expressing how they now understand why management makes the decisions they do, and to me, this makes a huge difference with many things within an organization. The knowledge gained during my three years is irreplaceable, and is hard to obtain doing your everyday job. For those with a little grey in your hair like mine, do not feel like it is too late! My three roommates and I are in our 50’s, we made it, and actually did pretty well. Last, but certainly not the least, is the friendships and the connections you will make. This part cannot be taught, is not listed in the curriculum, but might be the most important aspect of the experience. I do not know how they do it, but the GSB staff seems to place students in the best possible situations, I hear it over and over from graduates of the class! So, from an individual standpoint, this commitment is a great investment, and from an organizational standpoint, an outstanding investment in your employees.”

“The Graduate School of Banking at LSU provided an invaluable opportunity to expand my knowledge of bank management. More importantly, it gave me a much broader prospective of the banking industry. The ability to attend classes, share meals, and enjoy social functions with bankers with vastly different backgrounds from all over the United States and Mexico, gave me a perspective I could never experience anywhere else. It was truly humbling and motivating to learn from top tier instructors and from my proven, successful classmates within the industry. My time at LSU was priceless and it was an opportunity that I will always be grateful for. ”

The Graduate School of Banking at LSU really prepares oneself for the everchanging financial world. The wide variety of class topics, along with the flexible electives, and popular bank simulation gives a great overall understanding that can be tailored to any bank setting throughout our country.

Advisory Council, Class of 2018
The school stressed knowledge, competence, relationships, community involvement, and humble leadership. The remaining two years further solidified my relationships with professors and students, continued to deepen my theoretical and practical knowledge of banking, and culminated in applying all we learned in a two-week bank simulation.

President, Class of 2018
I believe graduating from GSBLSU is a vital component in progressing through my banking career. This is where I want to be. The caliber, prestige and expectations of the program are something I am proud to embrace and be a part of.

President, Class of 2017
The school has far surpassed what I thought it was going to give me. Lasting relationships. The incredible network of bankers and vendors to bankers. If you have any questions, your network is like having a banking rolodex that you couldn’t compile in 100 years.

Advisory Council, Class of 2015
The Graduate School of Banking at LSU taught me so many lessons that I could apply to my day-to-day life immediately. I truly appreciate this school for the instruction and direction, and I truly appreciate my bank for investing in my future.
