Yes, we encourage you to apply for Belong@Bain and ExperienceBain if you are eligible and interested. They are similar in that both programs introduce you to consulting and Bain before starting business school. But here’s how they differ:
Belong@Bain is a program open to MBA LBS students only who identify as Black Heritage and graduate in 2026. Events for Belong@Bain take place throughout the Autumn Term.
ExperienceBain is a larger program open to all incoming MBA students heading to eligible schools. It features periodic programming throughout the year.
