Yes! MG Accelerators only require a flexible commitment of about 5 hours/week and are conducted entirely online. If you're feeling confident that your existing internship is the right match for post-grad, then there may not be much value in participating in an Accelerator. However, if you're still considering alternatives or want to keep your options open, our Accelerator can serve as valuable way to expand your exposure to a new industry, company, or business unit during your free time without sacrificing your dedication to your full-time role. The upside is that upon completion, you might find yourself weighing two offers instead of one.

Our final application deadline for Summer 2019 programming is May 9, 2019. We will begin our Virtual Career Fair on May 13th and it will run through May 29 (first two weeks focused on finance, last one focused on consulting). All active MG members will be invited to take part. Immediately upon conclusion, participants will be allowed to update their work preferences (ranking of companies, geographic locations and business units), which will feed our matching process. Company selections will take place in late-June and you can expect to hear if you've been matched with an opportunity by the end of June. From there, all matched students will undergo two weeks of Accelerator training and then interviews will begin in the last week of July. Our hope is that you will know exactly where you stand with your sponsoring company by the end of the semester!

There is no catch! For real. By partnering with leading companies within the industries we currently serve (consulting and finance), we're able to offer our training Accelerators at no cost whatsoever to the student. Believe it or not, it's very expensive (and time-intensive) for a company to recruit on college campuses, and as a result, any large company will only realistically target 10-20 schools. By reducing the average cost-per-hire and expanding reach, we're able to guarantee full scholarship for any student accepted into the program.

At no point, and under no circumstance, is there a charge to the student. We pride ourselves on remaining accessible to students of all backgrounds, so we will never compromise on this point.
