Start here: EXPERIENCE M+N is June 8, 2027 and the application is due April 15
Maloney + Novotny’s current EXPERIENCE M+N page lists the program for Tuesday, June 8, 2027 in Cleveland, Ohio. It is a one-day summer leadership program built as a realistic career preview in public accounting rather than a multiweek internship.

The current page says applications are due April 15 and provides a Submit Resume action. Because the same page is explicitly the June 2027 program page, use April 15 as the current-cycle deadline. Recheck the employer page before submitting in case M+N closes the form early or changes the posting.
The reviewed program page does not state participant pay or a stipend. It also does not state that a previous internship is required, and it does not promise that attending produces a later internship interview or offer.
The GPA rule has two parts: overall and major
The current qualifications list rising sophomore or junior status, pursuit of a bachelor’s or master’s degree in Accounting or a related field, and a minimum 3.0 GPA both overall and in the major. Do not read the 3.0 threshold as applying to only one of those GPA measures.
M+N does not list a prior internship among the qualifications on the reviewed program page. That makes the event relevant to students who are still building their first professional signal, but it does not mean selection is automatic or that previous experience cannot help an applicant.
If your school does not calculate a separate major GPA or your academic standing does not map cleanly to “rising sophomore or junior,” use the employer application as the controlling source rather than inventing an equivalency.

The day is built around career preview, people and professional skills
M+N says participants engage with audit and tax personnel, build professional leadership and communication skills and complete team-building exercises. The program is meant to give students firsthand exposure to the firm’s culture and the work available in public accounting.
That is useful recruiting evidence, but it is different from performing billable audit or tax work. The current EXPERIENCE M+N page does not promise a graded case, financial model, tax return, audit workpaper, public portfolio artifact or other portable work sample.
The strongest post-event signal is specific: the functions you explored, the exercise you completed, what you learned about audit versus tax and how the experience changed the role you plan to pursue. Avoid turning attendance into a claim of accounting employment.
Use the resume to prove interest before you have an accounting internship
The public program page names a resume as the application material. If you have not interned in accounting, use coursework, a student-organization budget, bookkeeping work, a tax or audit class project, a part-time job with responsibility or another concrete example that shows accuracy and follow-through.
A simple application story is enough: why public accounting is worth testing now, whether audit or tax currently interests you more, and one piece of evidence that you can learn technical work and communicate with other people. Do not manufacture client or accounting experience that you do not have.
Because the current deadline is April 15, the practical sequence is to finish the resume early, verify both GPA figures and submit while the employer page still accepts applications rather than treating April 15 as a target day.

EXPERIENCE M+N and the M+N accounting internship are different programs
Maloney + Novotny separately describes its accounting internship as hands-on work across audit and tax engagements. Intern duties can include learning the firm’s audit methodology, working with client personnel, preparing financial-statement documentation, reviewing accounting procedures and internal controls and preparing tax returns.
EXPERIENCE M+N does not carry those duties on its current page. If you attend the leadership program, use a label such as “EXPERIENCE M+N — Participant,” not “Accounting Intern.” Then describe only the sessions, conversations and exercises you actually completed.
The firm actively recruits students for internships and full-time staff and places EXPERIENCE M+N inside its campus-recruiting ecosystem. That makes an M+N internship a sensible later target, but the employer does not state that event participation guarantees an interview, internship or hiring advantage.
Leave the event with an audit-versus-tax decision
Before June 8, write one question for an audit professional and one for a tax professional about the first assignment an intern receives. During the event, note what each person actually produces, how their work is reviewed and what part of the job is hardest for a new hire.
After the program, choose which track you would test first and record the evidence behind that choice. Then pursue the separate M+N internship process or comparable accounting internships rather than waiting for the leadership event to convert automatically.
If you are still too early for the internship you want, keep building accounting evidence through coursework, a small analysis project, bookkeeping or campus financial responsibility so your next application contains proof beyond event attendance.
