HBS Survival Guide
This informational handbook is sent from HBS Admissions to all admitted students to help them become acquainted with HBS and surrounding areas. The book is written by the students for the students, covering topics on student life, academics, careers, and social activities in the Boston/Cambridge areas.
Why sponsor the HBS Survival Guide?
- This is one of the very first publications all HBS students receive. As part of the students' acceptance packet, it is mailed to over 900 admitted students.
- According to a survey conducted by the Student Association, over 94% of incoming students read the student handbook prior to their arrival at HBS. Advertising in the HBS Survival Guide is a great tool for clubs, recruiters, and local advertisers because it is the first publication that is sent to incoming students.
- The proceeds from sponsors like yourself allow us to provide the guide to all incoming students for free.
