Did anyone else apply this year? Any idea on when we can expect to hear back?
This was formerly known as Morgan Stanley's "Bridging the Gap."
Also does anybody know of any similar URM programs that are still taking applications?

Bump.
I have not heard anything. Have you?
Nothing yet.
Deleted.
I haven't heard anything back yet. What are you stats?
I havent heard back personally, but there's another thread on here from 2015 where it looks like people are already getting calls.
Where is this thread?
I applied and haven't heard back yet either...I would like to see this thread also.
Went through this program a few years back. Helped me to land IBD SA gigs my following two summers. Happy to answer questions.
I just got an invitation for a phone interview today. If someone else has gotten one, pm me so we can talk.

About the thread I talked about a few days ago - I apparently can't link threads since I'm a new user, but it's titled "JP Morgan Freshman/Sophomore Summer Analyst."
That's for JP Morgan... Did you get a phone interview for Morgan Stanley or JP Morgan today?
Does Morgan Stanley let us know if they received our application but can't give us an interview? I don't see why they would not contacting us at all. Has anyone heard anything from them or contacting someone who handles this program?
I haven't heard anything back yet. Which worries me because my stats are pretty decent.
@"Sephoralover" Same, my stats are really good so I don't get it either
It's hard to expect anything because it's hard to know what they're looking for in freshmen.
True, no one really has the experience so I guess we'll just have to wait it out.
anyone hear from them?
Nope.
No, do you think none of us were qualified for the interview process?
I honestly have no idea, do u think we should email them asking if they're gonna let us know if we didn't get it? The suspense is annoying
I sent HR an email (under a fake name, hehe) asking when they would get back to people with first round emails, and HR said you should expect to know "within the next two weeks." I received the reply on Feb 20.
I had two phone interviews with Strats and Modeling a couple days ago. One went atrociously, but the other went really well. I think well enough for me to get called back for a superday with that second interviewer. You can pm me for more details.
Also, final round interviews are supposed to occur the second week of March, and I believe they're in NYC.
So there's no hope if they haven't contacted us by now?
2 weeks after Feb 20 is March 6. Don't abandon hope until then.
Well that is disappointing
well that email made me a little happier
Yeah, it gave me a litte more hope.
oh so I guess it's over
Not necessarily. Each group interviews at different times. See past years' threads.
I'm interviewing with Fixed Income tmrw...anyone advice on what to expect?
Is it phone or in person interview?
phone
no technical questions during phone interviews or there shouldn't be. They most likely will just ask you questions about yourself and see if your a good fit for the program
Does everyone get a phone interview? Just did mine and waiting to hear back.
Do you guys think they'll ask a ton of technical questions on superday?

Have you been contacted back for superday?
Still haven't heard anything.
Has anybody been contacted for IBD or Global Capital Markets?
I interviewed for Global Capital Markets earlier today over the phone

I don't think anyone's been contacted for superday yet... It looks like they're going to wait for all groups to finish their phone interviews and then they'll send a mass superday invite.

How many applicants do you think they will accept?
I heard that results will be sent by Tuesday Would you all mind commenting when you hear back?
Still haven't heard a single thing.
Anyone hear back?

Did you guys get a rejection email?
Yes I did get a rejection email, did you not get one?
I did not get one. I got no email, but I had 3 interviews last week.
I thought we were supposed to be notified yesterday.
Must be a good sign then, I know only one other person that applied but she didn't hear back either
I hope so. Could you please post if she gets notified of something, or receives an email? I would greatly appreciate it.
I'll post it. What divisions did you interview for?
had 1 phone interview for ib. superday invitation.
Is anyone staying at the mansfield right now? I would love to meet a few people before our big day.
Found out I got it Thursday & another kid from super day did too. Anyone else who did you pm me with your Facebook name so we can make a group chat or Facebook page. It'd be great to get to know the people we will be spending the summer with. (Maybe figure out living arrangements/make plans for fun during these stressful weeks)
Which superday did y'all attend? And for what division did hear back about? I attended the superday on 3/16
