Bank of America Merrill Lynch MBA Diversity Fellowship Program

Veteran

Travis D. Arlington , VA

For any Veterans planning to start an MBA next year and interested in finance, I recommend applying to this program. Not only will you get additional assistant for school, but have an internship already lined up before school starts.

The internship being squared away will give you more time to focus on school. I spent about 30% of my time last semester on job hunting for an internship.
