Citadel Associate Programme (CAP) - NY Summer 2024

Hello fellow monkeys,

As a freshman undergrad (2025), Europe-based, was wondering - are European university students considered for this role? I know, it’s quite pretentious to ask, since this is a difficult programme to get into, but I’d like to know nonetheless. Further to this, my degree is Economics (though I do some studies of my own outside of curriculum) - is that a disqualifying factor? Applied for the EMEA P72 ‘24 Summer Academy, and since both are very competitive, decided to try applying to both.

Thx
