PE Programs/Events for Incoming IB Analysts

Incoming IB analyst at a top BB (GS/MS/JPM) in a top group (M&A/TMT). Does anyone know of private equity insight programs, invite-only networking receptions, info sessions, or other events that college seniors should be looking out for?

I have heard of Apollo's Building Better Companies and Carlyle Collegiate Series, but am interested in learning how to get on the radar for these opportunities/firm that offer these events
