Partners and Families

Broaden the meaning of “Stanford family” by including yours.

Families, significant others, and children are a welcome and integral part of the Stanford GSB community.

The Stanford campus provides an enriching set of cultural, athletic, intellectual, and fun opportunities for MBA partners and families to participate in.

Whether enjoying events in the residential community or exploring the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond, the Stanford GSB experience has something for every member of the family.

"Despite this being my first time in the US, I am very lucky to be able to say that the only tough part of this transition was the 16 hr non-stop flight from Mumbai to San Francisco! Moving to Stanford has been a smooth transition and GSB has been a place where I have had the opportunity to interact with people from all over the world and learn about their countries and lives."

MBA 2022

"Being a mother and a student has been exhilarating and exhausting. It has meant that I have had to balance many more demands on my time and that my priorities have been different from my classmates. The school has been supportive, understanding when I needed more flexibility (on occasion I brought my son to class) and my classmates have been wonderful — throwing me a baby shower and offering free babysitting. Although motherhood and pursuing an MBA is challenging, it is doable and has been a very rewarding experience."
