Fabian Cruz (SIEML 2022)
MSBA 2025 | 
UC Irvine
California State University, Monterey Bay
      As a first-generation student, my time with SIEML was one of the most transformative times in my higher education journey. I connected with an amazing cohort, and I had the opportunity to hone my business skills, hear from talented UC faculty, learn about the business school application process, and connect with current graduates. Thanks to the program's alumni benefits, I received a full-tuition fellowship to pursue my Master of Science in Business Analytics (MSBA) at UC Irvine!

Afiya Ward (SIEML 2023)
Full-Time MBA 2026 | UC San Diego
Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University
     My time at the SIEML business boot camp was so impactful - from meeting the incredible cohort to researching and presenting our case, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. SIEML opened doors to opportunities that I wouldn’t have even known to explore. I landed a full-tuition fellowship for my MBA program at UCSD and gained access to a network of scholars and professionals that I will continue to build on for the rest of my career.
