U.S. MILITARY VETERANS: Please join us for this forum focused on the transition from a military career to an MBA program and into business in the civilian sector. Attendees will hear from panels of current UNC Kenan-Flagler students and alumni with military backgrounds who are starting or have successfully completed this transition. There will also be keynote speakers, an admissions information session, details about funding an MBA and the Post 9/11 GI Bill.
The morning (0830-0930) is reserved for optional admissions interviews. If you are interested in interviewing for 2017 admission to the full-time MBA program, please select 2017 for the question "When do you plan to start your MBA program?" and fill out the interview request form that appears. You will also be prompted to
upload your resume at that time.
Interview slots are limited and are available on a first come, first served basis. Interviews are only valid for the current application year, Fall 2017. You must start an application prior to the day of your interview in order to be eligible to complete your interview.
