Military Background Admissions

Pause

We take pride in our veterans and value their contributions to the program’s fabric.

The Broad Full-Time MBA and STEM MBA program can help you apply your military experience to a civilian career, maximizing your investment in yourself and preparing you for future challenges. We encourage you to reach out to some of our current students to share why they chose Broad to make the leap from the military to the civilian business world. 

Financial Benefits

GI Bill® Benefits

Veterans eligible for Ch. 33 entitlements should review this MBA Ch. 33 Guide before matriculating at Broad to ensure you properly receive your benefits.

GI Bill® is a registered trademark of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). More information about education benefits offered by VA is available at the official U.S. government website at https://www.benefits.va.gov/gibill

Yellow Ribbon Program

Michigan State University proudly participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program. Combined with your Post 9/11 GI Bill® benefits, this program allows eligible veterans to earn their MBA effectively free of tuition.

Broad Scholarships

In addition to the financial benefits you have earned as a veteran, you will be eligible for financial assistance through the Broad MBA program. Once admitted, the admissions staff automatically evaluates your application for additional financial incentives, which are awarded on a competitive basis. 

Other Benefits

  • Out-of-state veterans who do not qualify for any military benefits will be charged in-state tuition for the Full-Time MBA/STEM MBA program
  • Free one-night lodging at the East Lansing Marriott when you register to do an individual on-campus visit
  • Additional travel scholarship to attend MBA 360 and, if admitted, the Admitted Student Program
  • Application fee waiver – please contact Beth Thomas at thomase@broad.msu.edu for an application fee waiver (which cannot be applied retroactively)

Contact a Veteran

As a military veteran interested in pursuing an MBA, we understand that there are many factors that influence your decision of whether and where to attend business school.  One critical factor in your search is fit within a program’s culture. To evaluate program fit at the Broad MBA, we encourage you to talk with a current student. Please reach out to any of our vets listed below with any questions you may have regarding the Broad MBA program. All our vets were recently in your shoes and would be glad to discuss your options and their experiences at Broad. They can also match you with another student veteran representing your branch of service or experience. Once you matriculate at Michigan State, you will also be added to the Broad Military Alumni Network. This is a terrific resource for networking with fellow Spartans who share your experiences as you begin your internship search. 

 

Contacts will be updated in Fall 2023.
