Martha Guy Summer Institute for Future Business Leaders (MGSI)
The Martha Guy Summer Institute for Future Business Leaders (MGSI) is now accepting applications for their 2015 Cohort. They are looking for students who have a sincere interest in business as a college major and demonstrate leadership potential. Some candidates have an entrepreneurial spirit, or have unique or extensive part-time work experience. Interested students should demonstrate academic achievement. Students who embrace and appreciate new people, opportunities and experiences are ideal for MGSI. They should also be well-prepared to be away from home and able to manage a demanding schedule. Application deadline is February 27, 2015. Unlike most summer opportunities, MGSI combines a residential experience with out of state travel. The program concludes with a trip to Washington, DC and New York City. Each MGSI class is small. Twenty-four students from across North Carolina are selected. The group size provides a much more intimate, personal experience for each participant. “It is quite affordable considering the extensive travel, excursions and activities; tuition is $1,500 plus a meal plan fee (approximately $300 based on 2014 costs).” Need-based scholarships are available to qualified applicants.
