Booz Allen Hamilton Sponsorship Program for Women in Europe

What a fun it is to write on some topic other than “why the scholarship committee should consider you for ZZZ scholarship?”!

I decided to post eligibility criteria and documents required for the Sponsorship application for future applicants because the only other way you can get this is write to the organizer.


To be eligible you should be female, willing to work in a European office of Booz Allen and be admitted to one of the top MBA programs (Columbia, Harvard, IESE, IMD, INSEAD, Kellogg, LBS, MIT, Stern, Oxford, Stanford, Chicago, Wharton, Tuck).

Deadline
is 3 months before the start of your program: 1 June for September intake, 1 October for January intake.

Required documents
:
  • Current CV (1 page);
  • Copy of undergraduate university transcript;
  • The original or a notarized copy of the letter of admission to business school;
  • A letter of motivation explaining your interest in management consulting and Booz Allen Hamilton (1-2 pages);
  • Two letters of reference (1-2 pages each).

I found out that reference is needed in the beginning of May, called one of my recommenders to discover that he was flying away for a three-week holiday. Surprise-surprise :)
