After W&L
Together with on-campus programming, off-campus career trips, our robust alumni network and cross-departmental partnerships, students grow in an environment where they develop the confidence, skills and tools to pursue their goals. With a liberal arts education, an array of opportunities, personalized career advising and a dedicated alumni network, W&L graduates find success in their chosen careers all around the world.
Internships and Fellowships
A full college education cannot exist within the walls of a classroom alone. That’s why we encourage and support students who decide to pursue nationally competitive scholarships, internships and fellowships.
Preparing Your Path
Students benefit from personal attention from early career exploration to post-grad preparation. On-campus programming, career trips, and a supportive alumni network, ensure students have the confidence, skills and tools to pursue their professional paths.
