Global Honor Society Announces Partnership with Belk College of Business

ATLANTA (June 9, 2008) Golden Key International Honour Society announces a partnership with The Belk College of Business at the University of North Carolina, Charlotte.  The Belk College of Business is extending one $10,000 scholarship to a Golden Key member who is accepted into the UNC Charlotte MBA program.

Accredited by AACSB International, The Belk College of Business offers undergraduate, master's and doctoral programs in a wide variety of business disciplines. The College enrolls more than 2,700 undergraduate students and 500 graduate students, making it one of the Carolinas' largest business programs. The MBA program is offered in two formats: a full-time, fast track cohort program with courses offered during the day, and a flexible program with evening courses in which students may attend full- or part-time. The Golden Key scholarship will be available for students enrolling in either MBA program.

"UNC Charlotte is pleased to partner with Golden Key International Honour Society to make an MBA scholarship available to its members," said Jeremiah Nelson, the Belk College's director of graduate student services. "Golden Key identifies and celebrates students who are bright and motivated – exactly the kind of student who will thrive in our MBA program."

Golden Key members who would like to be considered for the scholarship should request an application form from the MBA Office by calling 704-687-7566 or emailing mba@uncc.edu. The admissions deadline for the full-time Fast Track MBA program begins is January 15 for priority consideration and March 1 for secondary consideration.
