Having participated in MREACH and now coming back to serve as a mentor, I recognize firsthand the immense value that MREACH provided by instilling a strong business foundation in the way I approach problems from such a young age. I cannot understate how vital MREACH has been in my development and I encourage anyone with an interest in business to apply.

All eligible students are welcome to apply. In particular, we strongly encourage students with minoritized identities, including first-generation college-bound students and students from lower socioeconomic standing, who are interested in studying business in college to apply.
