Launching: Boston's Premier Graduate School Readiness Program

Leadership Brainery's Ambassador Fellowship

The LB Ambassador Fellowship equips high-achieving college student leaders of color with the skills and resources to prepare for graduate school. We’re building a highly selective 20-person cohort of rising juniors who aspire towards the highest levels of education – master’s and doctoral degrees.

“My experience with the program has been transformative. The leadership training, networking opportunities, and support it has given us in creating change within our communities has been priceless! I've truly grown as a student, leader, and person through the help of LB.” - Deep Patel

The 18-month Fellowship guides Ambassadors through personal and professional development curricula as well as supports them to complete all graduate school admission requirements. Ambassadors will stay on track for postgraduate enrollment and get:

• One-on-one graduate school admissions coaching
• Fully-funded LSAT/GRE/GMAT test prep materials
• Mentorship opportunities with current graduate students?
• $10,000 completion award (once enrolled in graduate school)
