Diversity at Broad

Our diverse student body ensures the perspectives required to solve today's global business issues. The Michigan State MBA program makes a special effort to recruit talented potential managers from historically underrepresented groups—African-American, Latino(a)/Chicano(a), Asian/Pacific Islander and Native American (ALANA).

Learn more about the support and opportunities for ALANA students. Attend the Diversity Preview Weekend, and speak to our alumni. Find out why other ALANA students made Broad their choice.

So you've spent all your money on GMAT prep courses and the test itself, stayed up all night preparing your essays, and used most of your vacation time visiting MBA programs on the down-low…

Ask for one more Friday off and apply to attend our Diversity Preview Weekend, where you'll have the chance to meet with the Dean, faculty, alumni, students and administrators of the Broad MBA program. You'll also have the opportunity to:

• Meet with prospective classmates
• Participate in a mock MBA class
• Mix with admissions and administrative staff members
• Attend the MBA Exploration Program on Saturday with other prospective students
• Network and have a good time

All prospective students must apply to attend the Preview Weekend. Send a copy of your resume to Paul North at northp@bus.msu.edu. If you are invited to attend, the Broad MBA program will pay for your travel (only for attendees traveling from a location greater than 200 miles from East Lansing, and within the continental United States), hotel accommodations and all meals.
