When Jarin Kobashigawa BA ’20, MBA ’21 first enrolled at Willamette University, he had no idea he’d end the experience with an MBA.
But the abundance of student organizations on campus and a desire to find his community motivated him to get involved, and he took on leadership roles that cleared the path for him to study business and marketing. The 3+2 program was a faster way to become more marketable to employers, and he’s happy with his decision, he said.
“I have absolutely loved it here,” he said.
Learning by doing
Kobashigawa excelled at economics in high school and decided to pursue it at Willamette, where he felt students could thrive and excel.
