Each school year, the Goodman School of Business and the Business Students’ Association (BSA) send hundreds of delegates to a wide variety of competitions and conferences across North America. Best of all, you can be reimbursed for part of your delegate fee and transportation through the BSA. Simply visit the BSA’s website to access a <a href="http://www.brockbsa.com/competitions/">complete list of competitions and conferences </a>that Brock is sending delegates to, along with applications to be delegates.
