FT Consulting 2020 - Graduating in December

Do top-tier consulting firms consider undegrads who finish their studies in December? If yes, when is their start date? I know that the usual path is to graduate in May and start in early summer. I am an international student so that won't be possible for me. Thanks a lot!

Got an offer at a non-MBB graduating in December they recommend starting with the entire analyst class usually August or September. Have any other questions DM me, dont want to give out too much info.

 

At my university, FT consulting recruiting is all done in the first month and a half of the fall semester (August-Early October). It depends on the firm on when you end up starting. Big firms sometimes will give you a range of start dates. Some firms however start all their new hires on the same date usually late summer the following year.
