Officially launched in April 2017, NBMBAA announced their first installment of partners during the October 2017 Annual Conference and Exposition in Philadelphia.

Designed to establish long-term holistic partnerships with institutions of higher education, the NBMBAA Collegiate Partnership Program aims to increase awareness and facilitate access to graduate and business education programs in professional fields across the country.

“Elevating our relationship with the NBMBAA to the partnership level was a natural step,” said MarySheila E. McDonald, J.D., Dean of La  Salle University’s School of Business. “Our commitment to inclusion and diversity has always been in our Lasallian DNA and this partnership will enable us to broaden access and outreach to talented minority students interested in our portfolio of MBA programs.”
