The Jones Graduate School of Business at Rice University is proud to host Diversity Preview Weekend — our flagship recruiting event to attract top talent from our diverse communities, including U.S. underrepresented minorities, women, and LGBTQ prospective students. Activities include a Diversity and Inclusion Conference, alumni panels, sessions with the Career Development Office and Recruiting and Admissions teams, as well as social activities with current students, staff, faculty and alumni and a guaranteed interview invitation for those applying to the Full-Time MBA program this year.

Rice Business is also happy to provide three nights of lodging for those traveling to Houston from outside of the metropolitan area – please note, rooms will be double occupancy. Additionally, up to $300 in travel expenses will be reimbursed to attendees who submit an application to one of our MBA programs by the Round 2 deadline.

We encourage you to apply to join us! Those who are invited to attend will be notified by the Recruiting and Admissions Office. If you have any questions regarding our Diversity Preview Weekend, please contact Margaret Kazibwe at mek4@rice.edu.

Prospective students invited to attend the Diversity Weekend should plan on arriving Thursday by 5 pm and events will end Saturday around 10 pm.  Hotel accommodation will last through Saturday night for those coming out of town.
