Delaying start date of summer internship to July?

I'll be on an off-cycle internship from Jan to end June next year. So I just want to ask, is it possible to delay the start date of a summer program to early July?

I understand some summer internships have structured training program, which means the start date is not flexible.

Does anyone know of any summer internship (at BB or MM) that do not have a structured program?

If there is a structured program then no, if you are just working at some random boutique for the summer without any opportunity for an offer then probably yes

 

most interviews are held in jan/feb for BB's... GS HK actually started on the 8th last year and a couple of BBs start before 20th. just fyi. also i heard study abroad decreases your shot at BB

 

Try studying abroad in the fall of your junior year. You miss the networking opportunities and information sessions, but those can be made up in the spring of junior year.

You really need work experience before applying for an SA for your junior summer.

 

My school only allows for studying abroad in the winter semester (January to May) of third or fourth year. Do you guys think it would be better to study abroad in fourth year since if you study in third year, you forfeit a lot of recruiting events and interviewing opportunities(or do you?).

I go to school in Canada and I dont think there are accelerated interviews for people studying abroad. So does that mean that if I study abroad in third year I basically forfeit an internship? Unless I apply while im overseas or something.

 

switching the trip isn't an option at this point due to class requirements, graduation, etc.

I'd have to imagine that there are some kids out there who successfully pulled this off. Even if they landed at a boutique because of the travel times.

 

most BBs have accelerated interviews for those studying abroad. better start applying right now as interviews usually take place October-December

 

@mrbellaiche - thanks for the heads up.

my career services office was basically of no help, that's why I wanted to see if anyone on this site had been in a similar spot.
