Who We Are Looking For

While it’s important to us that our members' lives and experiences vary greatly, they all share the following common characteristics:

Intellectual Vitality

In assessing intellectual vitality, we believe that your attitude toward learning is as important as your aptitude. We consider the initiative with which you seek out opportunities that enhance your knowledge. We hope that your application and interview will convey your passion, dedication, and genuine interest in expanding your intellectual horizons.

Habit of Leadership

Leadership may be expressed in many forms, from high school and college extracurricular activities to academic or business achievements, from personal accomplishments to community commitments. We appreciate leadership on any scale, from organizing a classroom to directing a combat squad, from running an independent business to spearheading initiatives at work. In essence, we are looking for evidence of your potential.

engaged community citizenship

So much of our experience requires the active collaboration of other ACG community members. That's why we look for students who exhibit the highest ethical standards and respect for others. The right candidates must be eager to share their experiences, support their colleagues, and teach as well as learn from their peers.

We want applicants who have these traits, as well as bring a variety of experiences and perspectives. We encourage applicants from all types of backgrounds to apply, including those who might not have traditional business experience.
