Details on Our Summer MBA Forums Coming Soon!

ABOUT THE MBA FORUMS

Forté MBA Forums are designed for those considering an MBA — whether you're a high achiever looking to change careers, a college student planning for the future, or a professional ready to take your career to the next level.

Forté’s free MBA Forums are held annually to empower you with information about the value of an MBA. You'll make critical connections with admissions reps, MBA alumni, and students from top business schools in North America and Europe while gaining exclusive insights to the MBA admissions process.

In the summer, future MBA candidates gather in cities across the U.S. for in-person MBA Forums. Our virtual MBA Forums create an opportunity for even more participants to meet admissions reps from competitive business schools and gain a critical advantage in the application process.

Join us to learn about the lasting dividends of an MBA and best practices for applying to b-school. The high returns of an MBA degree are not just financial. When more women earn MBA degrees, they open new doors for themselves, level up their careers, and gain the opportunity to leave their mark on the business world.

DISCOVER THE VALUE OF AN MBA

  1. Understand the MBA advantage — career advancement, increased earning potential, and opportunities to study abroad.
  2. Connect with business schools, talk one-on-one with admissions reps, and find the program that's the best fit for you.
  3. Explore your options — full-time, part-time, online, and Executive MBA programs.
  4. Learn how to finance your MBA.
  5. Connect with standout peers to build a lasting support network.

DON'T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT

What’s really special is being able to connect with the schools that you might not know about, and learn all about what they have to offer.
