Is it too late for me

Hi All,

I go to Drexel Univ, just finished year 3/5 in my BS Finance/ MBA program. I applied to a bunch of IB Internships for Summer 2025 (would be the equivilant of my Junior Summer) and I didn't get any. I know all are pretty much closed now and I'm not sure where to go from here. I have 2 interships at Financial Firms on my resume allthough neither are IB related, more middle office interships. GPA is a 3.5/4. Any advice is helpful.

I’m in the same situation in terms of dual BS & MBA program and the 2026 graduation. I’d keep applying, there are a few shops with positions open in the Capital Markets/Corporate Banking divs. Even if you’re still trying to do IB it’s prolly better to be doing something productive over the summer than nothing to get your foot in the door
