How accessible and willing were the school’s alumni in helping you connect with potential employers?

It’s one thing to be connected with alums from your school. It’s another if those alums are helpful at connecting current and recently graduated students to potential employers. This year, graduates of Bucknell rated their alumni network the best at connecting them with potential employers with a score of 9.81. Notre Dame followed with 9.72 and Wharton finished up the top-three at 9.43.

Bucknell’s score was close to Notre Dame’s score of 9.83 last year. Overall, the average of 8.0 was less than last year’s 8.09 but higher than the 7.99 recorded the previous year.
