The Business Scholars Experience — We’ve got U!

The transition from high school to college can be both exciting and overwhelming. Don’t worry! We give you the tools, support, and community you need to thrive.

  • You are a business major from day one. First-year students accepted through Business Scholars Admit enjoy early admission into the business school.
  • Built-in community. You will be placed into small cohorts of fellow students to explore this new experience with you. You’ll share a few of the same classes, do projects together, get to know each other through fun social events, and make friends beyond your first-year.
  • Eccles Ambassador. A committed student ambassador will help you navigate your first year. They’ve “been there, done that,” can answer your questions, and even offer advice on where to find the best coffee for your mid-morning break.
  • Unique business experiences. Beyond regular cohort activities, you’ll have the opportunity to experience business in new ways, including networking with local companies and business leaders, leadership activities and workshops, and options to study abroad with Eccles Global!
