Our review
Anderson’s steady customers are the national laboratories, Sandia in town and Los Alamos up the highway, plus the film-production boom the state subsidized into existence. A resident cost near $26,000 makes it among the cheapest accredited MBAs in America, with a placement base more technical than its price implies.
