Sophomore at non-target here. I have been hearing that applications open in October November time this year for 2026 SA recruiting. Is this true? Has anybody else heard about this?

No they dont lol. ONLY HL opens in October but they review in Jan. The rest will open in Jan.
bet, thank you
Jesus this is like the 10th post on the same topic.
No, SA 2026 is not starting in October. Every bank besides HL opens after winter break, and HL doesn’t even look at apps until after the break.
thanks boss
looks like you were wrong man, RBC and William Blair are already open.

This aged well
Maybe SA 2030 will start in October of sophomore year. It should not be ur concern today
false, most of my younger friends have started
What??
SA 2027 lol but this really sucks
Bump
Any updates on this, I’ve heard November too
There are some chatters and rumors from my career center that some banks might open their apps and interviews towards the end of the fall semester. Nothing confirmed yet.
What month is end of fall
Lmao I love how hard people are tweaking over this. Banks definitely aren’t hiring that early chill 😂😂
Are u sure, that’s not what west coast schools said
Bump
GS, MS, JPM, WF, Citi and RBC are already doing SA 2030 intake, just opened today.
Hate to say it but places are already open (really stupid tbh). WB, RBC, Raine (won't review till December). GL to everyone this season
Absolutely insane
Where's Raine? Haven't seen the app—target only?
