MBA JumpStart

I spoke with someone who did the program. She said it's probably most helpful to complete career switchers considering consulting or finance (with the finance side being the most helpful). For those who know nothing about the different roles and positions available in the financial sector, this is a great way to get it figured out so you know where to start once you get to school, it gets the very junior questions answered for you early so that you're not wasting your time once school starts. Of course there is the "face time" component as well, an opportunity to meet with recruiters. I have yet to hear someone say it's a must apply to program, but if you have the time and the funds and you're interested in those industries, it's definitely worth giving it a shot.

Does anyone know how much it costs to attend? Doesnt say on the website--it just says that part of the costs are covered by sponsors...

Yeah I thought that was strange. I applied anyway. If it cost to much I guess you can always back out..

Just got an email notification today from MBA Jumpstart indicating that I've been accepting. Anyone else going for sure?

i'll be headed there as well. i was also curious to hear about the costs and how much the program subsidizes, but i guess we'll find out in the coming days.

just I am curious to know that as well. But I've already booked my flights...so I'm pretty committed.

I received an email indicating that students would be responsible for $105 per night.

haven't received any email back yet though I sent in my flight confirmations a week ago. $105/night each student?!! sounds high. I guess I'll wait for my email...
