Black text that reads: Undergraduate Renege Policy

Undergraduate Student Renege Policy

  1. Honesty and integrity during a student’s search process reflect character, personal brand, and the BU Questrom reputation. The professionalism of Questrom students is a trademark recognized by employers and is critical to career success overall. Questrom’s reputation is built on the quality of its students and their behavior and approach throughout the entire recruitment process.
  2. Once a student has received an official offer in writing and the student has communicated acceptance to the employer, that student is expected to withdraw their candidacy from all additional ongoing interview processes and search activities, and is expected to fulfill the conditions of the internship/job to which they have agreed (including salary, location, start date, etc.).
  3. Questrom understands that unusual circumstances (family/health situation, partner career changes/plans, etc.) may arise which would require a student to renege. In these rare cases, students must work with a Feld Center Career Advisor in order to preserve the reputation of BU, Questrom, and themselves. Situations that are handled poorly may damage Questrom’s employer relationships and negatively impact Questrom students and alumni. The career team is trained and available to help navigate these situations.
