Women at Simon

Attracting and advancing women is a priority here at Simon. The Simon School is a partner with the Forté Foundation, a consortium of major corporations, top business schools and influential nonprofit organizations that are dedicated to substantially increasing the number of women in business.

Though highly selective, the Simon School encourages all men and women with distinguished backgrounds to apply. A Simon degree offers our female students a top-notch business education, as well as the best business connections the world has to offer. We are the top choice for companies recruiting women employees.

By the Numbers

  • 30 percent of our full-time student body is female
  • 37 percent of our Executive M.B.A. class is female
  • Over half our M.S. students are women
  • 24 percent of our part-time M.B.A. students are women

Current initiatives

  • Forté Scholar Symposiums – Summer interns at New York-based companies exchange experiences and establish networks.
