Program Overview

BCG Empower, which is part of BCG Unlock, is a workshop for incoming MBA who have demonstrated a commitment to promoting the firm’s values of diversity and inclusion within their community during college, in the professional workplace, or otherwise.​ ​

BCG Empower is designed to provide participants with hands-on experience to help pre-MBA students grow their business toolkit and learn the skills needed to solve some of the world’s biggest problems. The program will also provide exposure to consultants from our Employee Networks, including the Black+Latinx@BCG and Indigenous@BCG Networks, who will share more about their experience in consulting and at BCG.

Through small group sessions, case prep, and social events, participants will get the chance to build a network of mentors and meet other pre-MBA peers, all while learning more about a possible career in consulting at BCG. ​

Our Empower 2025 application will be live in early spring. If you have any questions, please reach out to our MBA Recruiting Team.

What Empower Participants Are Saying

"BCG Empower was an experience like no other. Engaging with top leaders in the firm as well as future classmates and colleagues focused on the firms' future goals and mission was incredible. We had opportunities to ask questions about day-to-day life in the firm, practice our case interview skills and really get immersed in the culture of BCG. Empower did just that, it empowered us to step into the roles of future business leaders and understand the impact we can expect to have at such an incredible firm post-graduation. I’m so glad I participated and can’t wait to help the next class through their process as well!"
