We accept applications for our Operating Committee Member (OCM) class every fall. Our application process consists of a short written application and a single interview round.

Who should apply?

We are looking for undergraduate freshmen and sophomores who are interested in learning more about the world of finance, regardless of their majors or prior experience in the field. Although practical experience is an asset, we understand that many students do not have exposure to the financial industry and encourage all students to apply!

What is an OCM?

OCMs are responsible for presenting market recaps, assisting the E-Board in organizing speaker events, and participating in our internal education program that will equip you with technical finance skills as you prepare to recruit for internships and jobs.

Do I need to be an OCM to attend your events?

No! All our events are open to students across the Columbia community—simply subscribe to our newsletter and socials to be notified when we host an event.

What if I have more questions?

Feel free to reach out to anyone on the team or email us at cfig@columbia.edu. To stay updated on the application process and future events, be sure to subscribe to our newsletter and follow us on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram.
