Goldman Sachs IBD London - 2026 SA Final Year Eligibility

I have been contacted by an AS1 to consider applying to GS's London office for a classics role in the 2026 summer analyst program as my current internship is in an esoteric area of strong interest to GS's wallet share. This follows my attendance to an insight event in March 2025 at their London office. 

However, I can't find any info on eligibility as to whether Final Year applicants can apply to GS IBD Classics. I see it happen a few times but a GS recruiter on a webinar last year said that it's designed for penultimate year students "in mind", so I am confused.

Does anyone know about the eligibility of GS's IBD program for final year / masters students?
