This student organization seeks to develop the resources, community, and support for aspiring student actuaries and undergraduates interested in or seeking to pursue actuarial science, the study of risk management and its application to companies and clients. To achieve this long-term goal, a combination of organizational meetings, information gathering, resource gathering and dispensing, and academic and professional development activities are all necessary. As Yale currently has no other actuarial science programs or organizations, this organization serves as an incredibly rare opportunity for students interested in the profession to build important connections and receive structured assistance in the form of advice or financial support on certification exams, related internships, academic coursework, and other relevant components of actuarial science.
