Your path to FS-SC
Below you will find the dates and steps of our application phase.
- February 2026
Kickoff
At the beginning of each semester, you can meet us both at our booth at the Community Life Fair and specifically at our Kick-Off. There, you will learn in detail what we do at FS-SC, how a project works, and how you can get involved. Of course, you can ask us all your questions here.
Also follow us on LinkedIn or Instagram to get the latest information about our application process.
Online application
Shortly after the start of the semester, the application portal opens on our website.
Here we will need your CV, your transcripts, and your answers to a few short fit questions.
Please note that your application must be completed via your @fs-students.de email.
Recruiting Day
If we are convinced by your application, a personal interview as well as a case study, which you will both work on and present as a team, await you at our applicant day. You will receive an offer/rejection on the very same day. Afterwards, we welcome our newly admitted members on the same evening at a joint dinner.
Candidate phase
After successfully completing the applicant day, you will initially be accepted at FS-SC as a candidate. To become a full member, all candidates go through a so-called candidate project. Upon successful completion of this project, you will be accepted as a full member of FS-SC. Until then, you can already participate in all FS-SC events.

FS-SC Case Book
With the FS-SC Case Book, we want to enable students to prepare themselves in the best possible way for consulting interviews. To this end, we have compiled some basics and frameworks as well as sample questions that will not only help you to successfully master cases and brainteasers, but also ideally prepare you for the personal fit part of a consulting interview.
