MBA Student Renege Policy

We would like to remind you about Questrom’s employment offer policy and the consequences of accepting an offer and later reneging. If you have any questions, reach out to your primary career coach.

The Feld Center for Career & Alumni Engagement works with employers to ensure the best experience for Questrom students. In turn, professionalism of Questrom students is a trademark recognized by employers. Honesty and integrity during your search process reflect character, personal brand, and the BU Questrom brand. Our reputation is built on the quality of our students and their behavior and approach throughout the entire recruitment process. A Questrom student represents all Questrom graduates in the professional world. We expect Questrom graduate students to make decisions that are both intentional and informed.

1. Once you have accepted an official offer, you are expected to stop all other interviewing and searching activities immediately, and you are expected to fulfill the conditions of the internship/job that you have agreed to (include salary, location, housing etc.).
2. This policy applies to both internship and full-time positions.
3. We remind all parties that they are subject to the terms of the offer agreements and the laws of the state in which the agreement is enacted.
4. If a student reneges on an offer without outstanding circumstances or working with the Questrom career team, the student will lose all access to career services, including access to Handshake and alumni career resources.
5. We understand that outstanding circumstances may arise which would require a student to renege. In these special, but rare cases, we expect students to work with a career coach prior to any final decisions. Reneging on offers can damage the.reputations of the student and Questrom. The Feld Center and the graduate career teams are.specially trained to help students navigate these situations.
