The Stanford Graduate School of Business offers a variety of programs for students of all ethnic backgrounds. Last year, the school established a new Hispanic alumni advisory board for the HBSA to provide leadership, continuity, mentoring, and networking. Two years ago, the Business School Alumni Association introduced a Stanford GSB Hispanic directory, which allows Hispanic alumni to network professionally. Through the Charles P. Bonini Partnership for Diversity Fellowship program, students selected as Bonini fellows are placed in a nine- to 12-month internship with a participating corporate partner and are paid a competitive salary plus standard benefits and receive a full-tuition grant for two years at Stanford Business School. In terms of career placement, the school is represented by staff and students at the National Society of Hispanic MBA annual conference.

Diversity is a key strength of the Berkeley MBA program at the Haas School of Business. Its participation in MBADiversity.org, The National Society of Hispanic MBAs, Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers, Management Leadership for Tomorrow, and Riordan Fellows programs helps it reach a greater cross section of potential MBA talent. Haas Merit Scholarships and Haas Achievement Awards, as well as external scholarships such as Toigo and Infusion scholarships, ensure that students who have the talent to thrive in the Berkeley MBA program also have the financial means to do so. In addition, the Haas School's Latin American and Hispanic Business Association (LAHBA) is one of the many student clubs that organizes business projects, trips, and social events at Haas.

Tuck's commitment to diversity applies to the curriculum, educational approach, and to the Tuck campus. The school seeks candidates who will offer a range of backgrounds and perspectives to the classroom and the community. Partnerships with organizations to recruit a diverse student body include the Consortium for Graduate Study in Management, Management Leadership for Tomorrow, the Riordan Fellows Program, the Ten School Diversity Alliance, and MBA Diversity. Tuck offers a wide range of student-run clubs – some which focus around careers and events, and others which focus on culture and diversity. The Hispanic-American Student Association (HASA) is one such club, and participates in events such as the Tuck Diversity Conference and the Latin Party.
