Where Will Students Intern?

Founded by alumni of top universities and firms, matched to each student's interest area.

Where We Source Companies

We look for founders who came from somewhere our students want to end up: a top university, a Vault-ranked firm like McKinsey or Goldman Sachs, a Fortune 500 company, or an accelerator like Y Combinator.

Students spend two months working for that founder. They have the opportunity to finish with a real project, a recommendation letter, and a first contact inside the world they're aiming for.
