B School isn't easy...

and it isn't just the Accounting and Econ classes that are tough. Lots of veterans have a tough time transitioning from the field to the classroom, and although veterans clubs provide a place where military veteran students can have an immediate core group of friends and support, we believe there can be a lot more done to help prepare them for the next 2 years.

Early this month, our partner, Fidelis, launched their Pre-MBA Bootcamp designed specifically for military veterans matriculating into an MBA program this fall. We at Military MBA Voices are excited for the launch and believe it's a terrific way for veterans to prepare for not only the quantitative aspects of business school, but the important qualitative experiences, and most importantly, their careers beyond school.

From their website:
Fidelis’s Pre-MBA Bootcamp has been been built by military folks who’ve been down this path already for those who are starting their journey.
It’s targeted, quick, and practical--intended to be exactly what you need to hit the ground running on day one.
The program is delivered in a blended online learning environment, so you can participate from anywhere in the world. The experience and content is delivered through Fidelis’s advanced technology platform with the personalized support and instruction of designated Fidelis staff and a UCLA Ext. professor.
