FYI - for those interested in the broader question of how many colleges have competitive clubs and don’t particularly care about the hyper focus here on IB and consulting, there’s a new thread:
"Competitive clubs" in colleges seems to have become mostly a thread about investment banking and management consulting recruiting.
How commonly are college clubs other than those prepping for investment banking or management consulting competitive admission?
Obviously, some are typically competitive (e.g. fraternities, sororities, and similar organizations), and some are capacity limited (e.g. a club intercollegiate sports team can only be so large, and a performing arts show needs only so many people).
But what about the range of potential clubs that typically fall outside of these categories? Are there colleges where clubs like a hiking club, a charitable volunteering club, a cultural club, a club relating to a major, etc. have competitive admission (to the club, as opposed to a major or college)?
