- Explore North Carolina – Even as a busy student in a top business school, there is time to play. From the mountains to the beach, from skiing to whitewater rafting, a North Carolina MBA offers many avenues for outdoor recreation. With 30 state parks, 50 wineries, 300 miles of beaches, over 500 golf courses, and much more, North Carolina is a great destination for a weekend away from the books.
- City of the Arts – Winston-Salem is the city of the arts, and it boasts as many galleries, museums, live venues, and shows as a city two or three times its size. However, at only 20 minutes from edge to edge, you’re never far from your next stop.
- Central Location – Winston-Salem is located in the heart of North Carolina. It’s fewer than 350 miles from Atlanta and Washington, D.C., and fewer than 90 miles from Charlotte and the Raleigh-Durham areas. The city is a four-hour drive from beaches to the east and a two-hour drive from the Blue Ridge Mountains to the west.
- Quality of Life – Winston-Salem has the lowest cost of living of any metro area in North Carolina, according to Mercer Human Resource Consulting. In fact, Mercer named Winston-Salem the least expensive U.S. city in which to live (2006), and Business Week placed it 52nd among the world’s top 100 most livable cities (2007). So it’s no wonder Winston-Salem is one of the country’s 50 hottest cities for relocating business, according to Expansion Management magazine. And the fifth-best city of its size in the country for digital technology, according to the Center for Digital Government. And among Forbes’ top 25 best places for business and careers.
