Forté College Fast Track to Finance Conference
Do you enjoy working in an exciting and fast-paced environment, researching options, and making recommendations? Consider a career in finance!
The Forté College Fast Track to Finance Conference is a great place to start. In this one-day conference, you'll explore a multitude of financial careers, including investment banking, sales and trading, and relationship management. You will learn by "doing," strengthen your leadership skills, expand your network, and get an inside look at how the financial services industry works.
You don't need to be a finance major to attend — financial organizations need women from diverse academic backgrounds.

The best part? It’s free to apply! Admitted students from Forté Rising Stars schools can also attend for free — and the conference is just $50 for all other undergrad women to join us.
