Scholarship

The Investment Bank has developed a new BA scholarship, Launching Leaders, targeted to Black, Hispanic and Native American sophomores and juniors interested in financial services. In addition to the academic scholarship ($5,000 for sophomores, $7,500 - $10,000 for juniors), recipients will be awarded a summer internship in corporate finance, sales & trading or research. (Sophomores who successfully complete their summer internships will be invited back for a second summer -- that will include a rotation in our London office -- and can qualify to receive an additional year of scholarship support.) Launching Leaders candidates must have a 3.5 GPA and complete the application process. All majors are encouraged to apply. The deadline for applications is January 16, 2007.

Please forward this information on Launching Leaders directly to potential candidates you have met, early-stage analysts in your LOBs who may still have connections on campus and any other contacts who can help spread the word about this opportunity.
