<p>(this is an xpost from the umich forum, thought you guys might be able to help me out)</p>

<p>Hey guys, I was wondering how common it is for LSA students (in my case a polisci major) to land good finance summer internships (thinking about next summer). Despite not being in Ross or even econ (although I have taken 101&102), I'm an athlete, have a 4.0 coming into sophomore year which will likely stay the same since I have an easier load my next two semesters, and I have some decent ecs like research/clubs; will these be enough to compensate for not being in Ross? Thanks for the help</p>

<p>Banks may not like the fact that you’re not in the business school, but if you connect with alum in banking (there’s a TON from UMich) and do business-related clubs/organizations you should be fine. Just make sure you can relate your passion to banking and how your background may prove better than someone with a focused finance/accounting major (diversity of thought, public exposure, etc.)</p>
