Virtual Summer 2021 NYC - Thoughts?

Pretty convinced it will be virtual. Seems like cases are going down now but I think the variants will make things worse come march april, which is when decisions will probably be made

Agree that it will most likely be virtual

Definitely virtual. Since companies already have virtual infrastructure setup and can use similar programming from last year, they just need to tweak things a bit and they should be good to go for the summer. There's too much logistical stuff that that goes on behind the scenes to make in-person in happen during regular years and I dont think banks would want to prepare for an in-person internship and have to make it virtual again at the last minute.

NYC will definitely be virtual.  I saw some posts on here though where other cities, particularly those not in the Northeast or CA, may be in-person (like Houston)...at least for the smaller firms that don't follow a national policy.

Will be in NY this summer. Officially, program is saying that expect a regular start and they're waiting to see how things pan out for virtual/in-person but I expect things to be completely virtual with how things are right now. Plus they wouldn't let SAs into the office if their FT folks are WFH.
