The Asian American Cultural Center (AACC) at Yale is looking for alumni to sponsor students in a week-long unpaid externship in various cities, including NYC, LA, DC, Chicago, Boston, and San Francisco. In its fifth year, the program was established to give students a glimpse into life after Yale. Students shadow their sponsor at the work place and might be given a small independent project. Each sponsor usually sponsors one or two students. Students are responsible for their own housing and transportation. The AACC also hosts a community dinner for sponsors and student externs during the week. Thus far, feedback from sponsors and externs has been overwhelmingly positive. We hope you will become involved in this rewarding program!
Please read the sponsorship form for additional information and instructions on how to sign up.
