The Business Bridge Program (BBP) is a recruitment and outreach program designed to prepare students from underrepresented populations within Alabama for academic success at The University of Alabama (UA), specifically within the Culverhouse College of Business. The foundation is a one-week on-campus summer residential experience for rising high school seniors. Successful participants from the pre-college portion, who enroll at The University of Alabama to pursue a degree in business, will receive additional academic support during the college transition. They will also receive guidance in applying for scholarships and other financial support. The on-campus summer experience for rising high school seniors will be June 22-28, 2025.
The Business Bridge Program is a targeted recruitment, outreach and academic support program for Alabama residents who are African-American, Hispanic or Latino-American or Native American. Thanks to a partnership with Protective Life Corporation, this program is FREE for participants.
