Wharton AAMBAA

AAMBAA 2013

The 2013 and 2014 AAMBAA classes contain one of the largest groups of African, Caribbean and African American students of any business school in the world.


Prospective Students
AAMBAA works closely with the Wharton MBA Admissions Office to ensure that students of African descent have the resources available to become successful MBA candidates. We do so through active outreach, admissions counseling, and leveraging the expertise of the current MBA membership.

AAMBAA invites you to join our Application Mentorship Program.

AAMBAA represents all students of African descent in the MBA program and supports our members professionally, academically and socially. AAMBAA's key initiatives include group tutoring, study guides, a career fair, recruiting assistance, and deep connections with corporate sponsors. Once you have decided that Wharton is the place for you, AAMBAA’s Applicant Mentorship Program will help you by pairing you with a current MBA student who can give you advice on your application.

  • Our Application Mentors are current MBA students in AAMBAA who have been in your shoes
  • Application Mentors will comment on two essays: Essay number 1 (compulsory) and 1 other essay chosen by the candidate. We also ask that candidates send their resumé.
  • Deadlines: the application review deadline is December 19th for Round 2, and February 19th for Round 3.
