Definitive Updated Wharton Club Rank 2026

From a recent wharton grad in MULTIPLE of these clubs, and someone who knows their exits culture and  which ones  I chose to stay in. 

FOR FINANCE AND MENTORSHIP:
Tier 1:
GPS - top hf club exit to Citadel/P72 etc

WITG SSG/

VQ - top hf club, less selective than GPS

WITGTacOps/TMT/Global Macro and other involved committees

WITG - still top exits, but some committees less focused on education and teaching than others

PEVC - top exits to  KKR etc.

WUDIG - very smart people but focused on restructuring, does actually teach (good points below)

WUFC - good but less education, large for network, less skill-based to get in than above

Tier 2:

WHFC - great leadership but less involved

GRC - Consulting but fun w/good pipeline to quant, ib, p72 etc.

PIIC- more of a frat than anything but good

Tier 3:

WUCC - too serious, mainly consulting focused
MUSE - less relevant, still good but just mid overall
180DG - falling out of relevency slowly

SIC- dying club, consulting focus

Tier 4:
WUEC

WRC

WBLA/PUBS
WUDAC

WUAC

--- Relevancy---
