I’ve come to Wharton on an mba exchange for the spring 2025 semester on an F1 visa. I’d like to apply to the USA for a summer internship. Is this possible on my current visa or will I need a new one? also how likely is it to get an internship.

Assuming you are European—we actually work during the summer and most of the year

Most large, banks, financial services, and consulting summer internship programs finish recruiting by Nov. Many will say you have to have permanent work authorization to apply. This would exclude you as an F1 visa holder.

Speak with Wharton's career services and the head of your exchange program. I agree with C1: it's possible, but the timing is off, and big companies hire interns with the intent of filling FT roles, aka interns who want to stay in the US, mainly those who are actually enrolled in US MBA programs. There are plenty of domestic and international students actually enrolled at Wharton and other schools for these companies to pull from.

You can probably land an internship with a startup that just needs labor, but less of a chance with bigger companies.

unless you have connections, not going to happen. the formal intake of the internships for this summer closed by Nov of 2024

Legally possible but your timing is very off

There’s so much that goes into the recruiting cycle earlier in the beginning of the year. I’d be shocked if you could get anything that sponsors at this point.
