As part of this commitment, we created the Student Program at IMPACT. Since 2008, this program has enabled nearly 1,000 students and faculty from universities with strong business, finance, and financial planning programs to attend Schwab’s premier RIA industry event. While students and faculty enjoy the full IMPACT experience, they also participate in special events and programs that are specifically designed to help students make connections with advisors. The Student Union, located in the Exchange, is a great place to meet students and learn about the universities’ programs. Below is a schedule of when faculty and students from each university will be in the Student Union to discuss their program with advisors.
