Student Spotlight:
Swetha Chandraprakash

For Swetha Chandraprakash, coming to Golden Gate University wasn’t just about pursuing a degree — it was about fulfilling a lifelong dream.

After earning an MBA in Marketing and spending 14 years building a successful career in India, she felt that the time was right to invest in herself and pursue her childhood dream of studying and living in the United States.

As she began to research universities with strong project management programs, GGU quickly rose to the top of her list. When she discovered the scholarship opportunities available through GGU, everything fell into place.

“It was just so fulfilling at that moment to know that I’m actually going to get to do this. I’m finally going to get to go to the U.S. and pursue my master’s, which has been my dream since I was a child.”
