TSF leverages a decade-long track record of growth, providing new opportunities for students to build their expertise and express their perspectives on the market.

Help Us Shape the Future

TSF is the oldest investment club at the Tepper School of Business, and is open to any undergraduate student enrolled at Carnegie Mellon University.

Discover Opportunities

Each semester, we actively seek to expand TSF membership, extending an invitation to current Carnegie Mellon University students to participate in our comprehensive recruitment process.

Our outreach events and information sessions, held in early September and January, serve as opportunities for prospective candidates to gain deeper insights into our organization. The formal application process follows shortly and consists of two parts: an entrance exam and a stock pitch interview.

While TSF’s admission process has been historically known for its high level of competitiveness, we encourage all interested individuals, regardless of their background in finance, to consider joining our ranks.

People drive our success. We seek highly motivated, intellectually honest, and humble individuals who bring unique experiences and perspectives to their work. We value a diverse array of passions and experiences, with particular emphasis on:

  • Demonstrated academic excellence

  • Keen interest in financial markets and a strong desire to continually expand one's engagement in the field.

  • Exceptional extracurricular engagement and a history of leadership initiative.
