The amazing thing about the liberal arts is it offers you the ability to get involved in everything you want to and more.

From Intern to Analyst
I chose Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ because I was looking for a management, finance or economics academic program that would provide me with an expansive alumni network, internship opportunities and potential job opportunities. I also wanted to collegiate play volleyball.

Participating in the Management Fellows Program was awesome and provided me with a lot of networking opportunities as well as internship opportunities.
Through this program, I had a semester-long investment banking internship with KeyBanc Capital Markets. I was actually lucky enough to be offered a full-time position as an investment baking analyst following graduation. I'm extremely grateful for the opportunity and could not have done it without the people at Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ.
I was also able to have – through my networking opportunities – two other internships, one at Swiss Re, where I was a tax intern. There I co-authored and published an article, “Applying the 8th Amendment to Civil Tax Penalties,” which was a really awesome experience and something I had never done before.
I also interned at Citizens Bank with their leveraged finance group. And through that experience, I was able to connect with many Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ alumni. I was co-president of Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ’s Investment Banking Workshop. During my sophomore year, we won the Association for Corporate Growth (ACG) Cup. It’s a regional competition through CASE. And that was a really amazing experience, and it’s what got me interested in investment banking.
