Any major, any background. A community for Cornell students building careers together.

Fall 2026 recruitment

Who we're looking for

About GCC

GCC is Cornell's only international finance club. Applications are open to every Cornell student, any major and any background. Our members come from all industries and interests, across geographies and cultures.

Recruitment is highly selective. We look for high-achieving, motivated students who want to grow professionally and personally, and who will do the same for the members after them. New members join a 10-week professional development series led by experienced upperclassmen, get a mentor, and become part of a family that lasts well beyond Cornell.
