Interested in Applying to EMIF?

*** PLEASE NOTE: Applications for Summer 2025 are now closed ***

Who can apply?

Students currently in their Sophomore or Junior years in college may apply. Experience with investing is not necessary, but an interest in investing, as well as strong quantitative skills, are required. We welcome students of all backgrounds to apply. 


Is the Fellowship paid?

Yes. Fellows will be offered compensation at competitive rates, and travel to and from the seminar and fellowship as well as books and learning materials will be provided. Housing assistance may be available for those with demonstrated need.


Will there be a longer-term career opportunity?

Most of the institutions participating in the summer fellowship are looking to find longer-term employment matches through the program. It is quite possible that strong performance during the fellowship could lead to a full-time job offer being extended after graduation. However, this is subject to the hiring needs of the various institutions in any given year. In any event, the experience will offer a solid foundation for a future role in investment management. Past Fellows have gone on to full-time roles in endowment management, private equity, hedge funds, investment banking, and philanthropy, among other areas.


How do I apply?

Eligible students may apply via Handshake or their university's recruiting portal beginning October 1st. If you are experiencing technical difficulties, you may email info@endowmentmanagement.org for assistance. All applicants must include a cover letter, resume, and transcript. Selected candidates will be interviewed by video conference. Early application is encouraged as candidates will be vetted and offers will be extended on a rolling basis beginning in October.
