Read what a previous year's grant winner has to say about the program:
"The Hispanic Leadership Master's Grant Program is helping me grow, not only because of the depth of knowledge I am receiving, but because of the admirable people I am surrounded by. Having this opportunity to be in a master's program where everyone is there to learn is such an experience. Our MBA cohort at Drexel is becoming like another family. The exposure to the community that Drexel provides is phenomenal. There are so many events throughout the community to attend and be a part of. Drexel is extremely involved in the community, and to me, as a Hispanic, it is very important to have that kind of support. This experience has been amazing, and the accomplishment makes me feel great. I know, that in the end, having this Master's in Business Administration is going to help me go places. Having an opportunity like this with the Hispanic Leadership Master's Grant does not come around often, and I am eternally grateful."
