Point72 Academy SA 2026
Has anyone heard back and received the case study? Did previous year's applications include three 250-word essays? I was unable to move on to the case studies round for the Future of Finance Accelerator program, despite at an Ivy target with 3.9.
Hi, are you referring to the academy programme for experienced professionals? I didn’t know there was a 250 word essay component. What’s that about? Thanks!
no, he’s referring to the summer analyst program for undergraduate sophomores
The "2026 Point72 Academy Investment Analyst Summer Internship Program - US," for current undergraduate sophomores.
Received case study. top target 4.0 stem working at tiger cub
I can’t tell if ur serious or not
Del
Received case today. Semi-target 4.00. Also received case for Future finance accelerator as well but was rejected after I put in ≈30 hrs into it. Hoping for better luck this time.
I thought everyone receives the case study?
I got it the other day - 500 word response for the 2 company prompt
Did you submit? Do you know when one can expect to hear back and anything else about the selectivity? I also got the case.
what % of applicants usually receive the case study (not even sure if anyone would have a guess on this)?
It seems like most people got it.
Haven't received it, got dinged maybe.
target school or prev exp?
Update - direct rejection. At Y/P/S, 3.9, int'l student, three decent internships including one with a hedge fund. A little surprised.

Are they full or still recruiting?
MBB SA vs. EVR/MS/JPM/BoA ER SA: Which is better for FT recruiting for P72 Academy or Citadel CAP? All speaking of US.
Doesn't matter, ER is more relevant and might help you do better in the application process but a lot of ER SAs are dumb, even at the top banks ime.
