Application Process:
To apply for this trip, students must fill out the Tribe Response Form (https://forms.wm.edu/17954) that will ask general questions of the student, as well as require the student to list a faculty member who will serve as their recommendation to the program. Additionally, students will upload a resume, cover letter, and essay to this posting on Tribe Careers. Your application will not be considered complete until you have filled out both sections of the application and completed the Tribe Response Form with your faculty recommender information. Please note the trip is geared toward students who have not yet secured an internship. Should you accepted an internship before December 14th, we may ask that you give up your spot to allow another student access to the program at which point you'll receive a full refund for the program cost.

The essay should address your interest in investment banking, trading systems and risk management platforms, hedge funds and asset management , what you've done to explore the career field, what you hope to gain from the experience, and what you will contribute to the program. The essay should not exceed one page.

Students will be accepted on a rolling basis.
