Program Information
This fall, Darden is excited to offer two marquee programs during the same weekend: The Women's Symposium and Diversity Conference. Both programs are an opportunity for prospective students interested in the Darden Full-Time MBA program to experience how the school embraces diversity and inclusion.
We welcome all applicants and prospective students who are considering the Darden Full-Time MBA to apply and attend the programs. The Women's Symposium will be most beneficial for those interested in learning more about the experience and resources for women students. The Diversity Conference will be most beneficial for those interested in learning more about Darden's broad approach to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
