Welcome to UpClose Weekend
The Ross School of Business' Black Business Students Association (BBSA) and the Hispanic & Latino Business Students Association (HLBSA) are partnering with the Office of Admissions to offer a diversity recruitment event that gives prospective fulltime MBA students the opportunity to experience Ross "UpClose."
At Ross we believe that a broad-based, diverse community is essential to the character of our School, to the education and leadership development of our students, and to the contribution we make to business and society through our graduates. UpClose is an integral part of our continuing efforts to enroll a diverse student body.
Historically the UpClose weekend was designed to attract talented African American, Hispanic American, and Native American applicants to the Ross MBA program. We’ve expanded this event to include all prospective students, of any race or ethnicity, with an interest in improving the representation of minorities in business schools and in management.
Agenda
The UpClose
agenda includes:
- Current student panel
- Career development workshop

In addition, all participants will be paired with members of the Black Business Students Association or the Hispanic and Latino Business Students Association for weekend activities.
