2020 Business Emerging Leaders (BEL) Program (Posted 12-2-19)
Greetings from the Wisconsin School of Business at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. We are excited to share that the application for the summer 2020 Business Emerging Leaders (BEL) Program is now open!
The BEL program is a pre-college summer program for talented students interested in business that begins the summer after 10th grade and continues through participant’s 11th and 12th grade summers. Students who apply and are admitted to the University of Wisconsin AND who have successfully completed the BEL program are granted a full-tuition scholarship for four years of study in the Wisconsin School of Business (WSB).
Program Highlights:
There is no cost to students to participate in the BEL program other than transportation to and from the Madison campus each summer.
BEL participants live on campus each summer and engage in activities focused on self exploration, team building, career exposure, and academic growth, including an ACT prep course and courses in Business Analytics and Professional Communication.
Students also visit local and regional corporations, participate in business career shadow experiences, engage with business alums, and learn about the business majors offered in the WSB.
Participation in the BEL program conveys a distinct advantage when adjusting to higher education, learning in college classes, and applying for internship opportunities, all of which help prepare students for successful careers in business. Participation does not guarantee admission to UW-Madison.
To be eligible to apply to the BEL program, students must:
Be a current 10th grade student
Be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident
Have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 (unweighted on a 4.0 scale)
Identify as at least one of the following:
Black/African American
Hispanic/Latinx
Native American
Southeast Asian American (Hmong, Vietnamese, Laotian, Cambodian)
Eligible to receive free or reduced lunch benefits at school
More information, including details about how to apply, can be found on our website.
