An Evening with the McCombs, Stanford, Northwestern, and Columbia Business Schools to Celebrate the Consortium
Please join the McCombs Austin Chapter as we celebrate Columbia Business School (member '21), Stanford Business School (member '22), and Northwestern Kellogg School of Management (member '23) joining the Consortium for Graduate Study in Management.
The Consortium connects people, institutions, and companies that have shown a commitment to their mission to enhance diversity and inclusion in global business education and leadership. Specifically, they foster a network of the country’s best students, leading MBA programs, and corporate partners, including Fortune 500 companies. They provide a streamlined application process to member schools to award merit-based, full-tuition fellowships to top MBA candidates who have a proven record of promoting inclusion in their schools, jobs, and/or personal lives.
The event will feature a panel of alumni from the different schools discussing their experience with the Consortium before, during, and after their MBA program.
