List of Sophomore programs

Don’t get at me for asking this but is there a list of all the sophomore programs for 2024 and their deadlines? People say to use the search button but I can’t find any posts on it. I just don’t want to miss out on any opportunities. Thanks!

Nah you are kinda goofy lol I've been looking at the posts since I was a junior I'm HS. They're definitely on and around this forum.

Whether or not you are diversity will play a big role in what you get for sophomore summer. MS sophomore is strictly diversity for s&t; bofa is doable but you HAVE to network. I've seen Wharton women get into GS sophomore that weren't diverse so ... in other words you need an in of some kind.

As far as EB's go they normally will only do events / synopsiums. I do know that evercore has a dedicated sophomore program but I'm not sure who has gotten it historically speaking. It's a small number of folks.

I'd shoot for the best boutique you can if you're not diverse, and if you are then delay graduation since BB sophomore recruiting is pretty much done..

Delay graduation because sophomore recruiting is done? Are you retarded? OP should be worried about junior summer recruiting which starts January of next semester. He definitely can network and prepare for technicals in the meantime. Sophomore summer analyst programs are far and few between especially post-2020, and your sophomore internship could not matter less (which, by the way he can still get at a MMPE firm).
