Summer Venture Management Program

SVMP is a one-week management training program for rising college seniors (who have completed their junior year of college by June 2021) designed to increase diversity and opportunity in business education. Participants spend a week on-campus living the MBA student experience – attending classes, analyzing case studies, and debating management issues with peers and faculty. Targeted participants are members of groups typically underrepresented in business schools and corporate America (e.g., African American, Latino, Native American, LGBT, first-generation college students, etc.). Undocumented students are eligible to apply. International students are not eligible for SVMP however, they should consider HBS Peek Weekend. HBS covers all educational expenses, including room and board. Although not required, many internship employers may offer to pay your salary during the week of the program and assume the costs of your transportation to and from the program. You will need to arrange for your own transportation to and from the program. Limited financial aid is available to cover travel expenses to the program; admitted students will be given information on this process. The program will take place between June 12-17.
