September 2025 Newsletter

We're back!

As summer comes to a close and the 2025/26 academic year begins, this newsletter serves as both a welcome back and an introduction to this year’s WiF. A new board and ambitious plans lie ahead. Stay tuned!

September Recap

Fall Recruitment: We started the year off strong, receiving many applications and meeting prospective members at Associations on Display and our recruitment aperitivo. We can't wait to welcome many of you to the network!
Internship Ready: We kicked off the month with a workshop where members shared insights from their summer internships across IB, PE, Quant, and Consulting. Hearing about their day-to-day responsibilities firsthand provided valuable insights into the intern experience. It was a great opportunity for our second years to discover where their interests lie and start planning their own applications for next summer.

Don’t miss out on our social media where we post our weekly tips, market news and market quizzes as well as stories of women that keep inspiring us!
