Project Run With It

Sponsored by Baker Tilly Foundation

Deadline for applications: Friday, May 1, 2026 by 11:59 PM ET

Project Run With It (PRWI) is a unique competition designed to further the community service component of Beta Alpha Psi and provides student members with an opportunity to engage in a real-world consulting project.

Beginning in 2008, Beta Alpha Psi teamed up with the Moss Adams Foundation to present Project Run With It in connection with the Beta Alpha Psi Annual Meeting each summer. This year, the program continues with the Baker Tilly Foundation. Whether live and on-site or in a virtual setting, student participants will engage in a memorable and rewarding experience.

• Non-profit organizations describe real business problems for which they are seeking solutions.
• Selected student participants are placed on teams of four students from across the United States and the Oceania region to respond to the non-profit request for proposal.
• Each student consulting team develops creative solutions to business issues and delivers their solution in a professional presentation.
• Judging panels are made up of representatives from the non-profit, professionals from Baker Tilly, and faculty advisors from Beta Alpha Psi chapters.
