Summer Between Undergrad and Grad School

Hello everyone,

I will be completing my undergrad degree this May, and will be beginning my MSF in the Fall of 2015. However, as for working opportunities goes, I was curious as to what the path I should take is...is it possible for me to find an internship for this summer, or will people look past me because I have completed my undergraduate degree? If not, do I simply prepare and study for the Series 7/other tests?

I have no idea what to do this summer, so any input would be appreciated.

Thank you

 

You're a little late for the structured internship applications for the most part, but you could network your way into an internship for next summer.

As for studying for different tests, what exactly do you want to do post grad?

Either way though, the series exams would be pointless to study for because you'll need firm sponsorship for them. Ones like the CFA would be about the only one you could take right now.
