Meet the Scholars

Martina Oliveto shared her experience: “Four months ago, I was convinced that I would not pursue a master’s degree. However, thanks to the Bootcamp experience at Hult Business School and the collaboration with JCU, a new and incredible opportunity opened up for me. I applied for a master’s program, was accepted, and even received a high-range scholarship. Today, I officially confirmed my spot, and I will be moving to Dubai in October. I am truly grateful for this life-changing experience.”
