Outlet: Wharton Stories

The incoming MBA Class of 2026 is a few months away from the start of their life-changing MBA experience. In April ~400 members of the class and their partners came to campus to learn more about what’s in store for the next two years. During their weekend on campus, students had the opportunity to get to know fellow admits, take a masterclass with Vice Dean Nicolaj Siggelkow, and listen in on student panels that provided a candid look at the MBA experience.

Between events, seven incoming students shared what excites them about Wharton, and what led them to join the Wharton MBA community.

Wesley Suggs, who intends to major in Finance and Social and Governance Factors for Business, shared the following advice for anyone considering the Wharton program: “If you come from a non-traditional background, it is important to know that Wharton will appreciate your unique experiences and has a lot to offer you! If you are passionate about making a social impact, Wharton is the perfect place to thrive. They will provide you with the necessary knowledge and resources to leverage your unique talents and achieve your goal of becoming a positive force for change. It is a place where you can develop the skills and make meaningful connections that will enable you to make a real difference in the world.”
