The Finance Academy is open to male and female students whereas as the name suggests in the UBS Young Women's Leadership Academy, only female students can attend. In terms of the actual program, the Finance Academy I believe is more finance oriented as I attended the UBS Young Women's Leadership Academy and when comparing the agenda given out with my friend who attended the Finance Academy, though the activities were largely the same, the Finance Academy had a few more activities more so catered to those really interested in Finance. On the other hand, as the name also suggests, the leadership academy focused a lot more on developing leadership qualities. Nonetheless, the leadership academy really centred 3/4 of its activities around Finance so keep that in mind when applying. But both academies are equally enriching and you come out of both with the same knowledge from the talks they also provide about their programs for uni undergraduates and graduates.
