My experience getting the G/I Distinction was the highlight of my career. It gave me the opportunity to join the community and engage with people that I had never thought I would get engaged with before.
I would tell a new student absolutely take it [G/I Distinction]. You'll be ahead of the curve, you'll be ahead of your time, they'll help you in not only school, but your future pursuits in career.
If I were to recommend a student to go to G/I Distinction. First off, it's really helpful on a job application. But there's a lot of learning behind it and it gives you a set of skills that help you move forward.
My advice to anyone who's thinking about getting the G/I Distinction is to just do it. You're not going to regret it. It's going to set you apart among the masses when you're pursuing your future education or career.
