  <title><![CDATA[Silver Scholars Program: Yale School of Management]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>The&nbsp;<a href="http://som.yale.edu/programs/mba/admissions/silver-scholars">Silver Scholars Program</a>&nbsp;allows college seniors to earn a Yale MBA degree in three years directly after graduation, spring-boarding them toward their career goals and leadership positions. The program is designed for exceptional students with strong leadership potential. These students enroll in the&nbsp;full-time two-year Yale MBA program but rather than the traditional summer MBA internship, Silver Scholars complete a year-long internship, extending their experience to three years. We also offer a joint-degree with the Yale Law School for students interested in pursuing a joint&nbsp;<a href="http://som.yale.edu/programs/joint-degrees/mba-jd-yale-law-school">MBA/JD degree</a>.<br />
&nbsp;<br />
Candidates of all majors are welcome to apply. The admissions committee is looking for candidates with a combination of intelligence, maturity, and curiosity who aim to be future leaders in their field of interest. There is no particular background that is given preference &ndash; Yale values the diversity of interests and experiences that its&nbsp;Silver Scholars bring to the broader MBA class at Yale SOM.&nbsp;A current Scholar, Ryan Hauser, recently shared some thoughts about his experience in the Program in this&nbsp;<a href="http://som.yale.edu/blog/silver-scholars-program-offers-flexibility-freedom-to-experiment?blog=3490">blog</a>.</p>

<p>For more information, please see the program&nbsp;<a href="http://som.yale.edu/sites/default/files/Yale%20SOM%20Silver%20Scholars%20Program_0.pdf">brochure</a>. Interested seniors (and juniors) can contact Maria Derlipanska&nbsp;<a href="mailto:maria.derlipanska@yale.edu">maria.derlipanska@yale.edu</a>&nbsp;for application advice or questions about the program.</p>
