Top 25 Schools for Beacon Fellows as ranked by MBB Project Leads

This list contains the top institutions who have sent extremely high quality students on the Beacon Fellowship, in some cases, multiple highly rated students.

Why is this a big deal?

Offering high salaries and prestige, and some of the best learning and exposure in business, consulting attracts many of the world's best and brightest.

The Beacon Fellowship gives many such students, from the United States and abroad, the opportunity to experience real consulting under the guidance of a former McKinsey, Bain, or BCG consultant. As a Fellow, they gain expertise in foundational business & consulting skills and a significant leg up when they apply for internships and jobs at the top consulting firms.

During the course of the 4-week Fellowship, Beacon Fellows go through a rigorous vetting process, at the end of which the MBB alumnus Project Lead chooses the cohort's top six Fellows. The top Fellow receives a score of "6", the second Fellows receives a "5", etc.

Universities receive a Fellow composite score equal to the sum of scores for each of their individual scores. We're extremely appreciative of these universities for helping to prepare their excellent Beacon Fellows.
