Are you looking to get more out of your undergraduate experience? Are you interested in a career in consulting while gaining firsthand experience that no other group offers? The UConn Consulting Group will provide you with real experience solving problems for various organizations.

UCG competitively recruits students at UConn with demonstrated ability and dedication. We pride ourselves in our ability to solve problems and make an impact. UCG will provide the training, experience, and community to support your future success, whatever your background and interests.

UCG accepts applications at the beginning of every new semester. Any UConn undergraduate can apply regardless of major. If you are interested in joining, come to one of our information sessions or check us out at the involvement fair.

The UCG Application Process is designed to let applicants take away valuable skills and experience whether or not you are asked to join the group. These skills will include structured problem solving, critical thinking, and navigating interviews including case interviews.

Steps:

1. Application: Submit an Application using the link at the top by the deadline
2. Interview Round I: Selected applicants will receive an invitation to a UCG Interview “Superday” where applicants participate in a series of 3 interviews. Interviews will include a behavioral, a case, and group interview portion which will be conducted by senior UCG members. The fit portion will allow the interviewer and interviewee to learn about each other’s backgrounds and ask questions. The case interview will test your ability to structure your thoughts, drive the conversation towards a solution, and think on your feet. The group interview will test your ability to work cohesively and efficiently in a group setting.
3. Interview Round II: Final decisions will be dependent on a second round of interviews. These will be conducted virtually with UCG graduates.
