2016 Credit Suisse BA Explorer Program for College Freshmen and Sophomores- Thread

Good morning my friends,

Ill keep this nice and simple...

  1. Has anyone applied for this program? It is similar to the JP Morgan Early Advantage Program and the Barclays Springboard 2016...

  2. When do you think we will get a response?

  3. And has any one heard back?

I saw similar forums being down for Barclays and JP Morgan. I happened to have been accepted to JP Morgan's event for CIB in New York City, and I happened to apply for CS as well. It was great to see much discussion on those forums and updates on the status of the application. I would like a replication of the same level discussion. Thank you for contributing!

You're probably right. I got into another one that I had wanted to get in more so it's not a big deal. I looked at other threads on WSO from previous years and it looked like CS was normally pretty late about sending invitations. Not to mention the fact that i would've had to reschedule my finals on a very short notice.

 

Not sure how they're going to book flights/accommodations at such short notice. I just need to know if I have to make arrangements with my professor. Is it worth calling HR and asking?
