Our Mission
The Goizueta Business School Veterans Association is committed to advancing the careers of our military veterans and active duty service members through one of the top Master of Business Administration programs in the United States of America.
We accomplish this through exclusive access to a vast network of academic, professional resources, and partnerships that educate, develop, and connect our community in ways that make GBS veterans the number one choice for a future employer. GBSVA also leverages its extensive alumni network to mentor our student-veterans to overcome the unique challenges that military veterans face as they transition into the civilian workforce.
Veteran Focused Programs
ON-RAMP
The purpose of the GBSVA On-Ramp Program is to coach prospective student-veterans through the MBA admissions process and prepare admitted colleagues for success prior to their first day of class.
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
The purpose of the GBSVA Professional Development Program is to provide MBA candidates access to exclusive resources that are specific to helping military veterans grow as business professionals. The program also further subsidizes career-building resources offered to all Goizueta business students through the Career Management Center.
VETERAN CONNECTIONS
The purpose of the GBS Veteran Connections Program is to continue strengthening our network of business professionals and community leaders consisting of GBS Veteran-Alumni, business partners, and executive mentors to connect GBS Veterans to their choice of career. We accomplish this primarily through our world-class networking events such as our annual Veterans Connections Dinner and quarterly GBS Rendezbrew as well as our Alumni Mentorship Program.
