ALUMNI VOICES AND TESTIMONIALS

“The WMI program fostered both personal and professional growth helping me build meaningful relationships and provide me with invaluable hands-on experience.”

Maren JacobsonAdvertising Major

“WMI gave me the confidence and connections I needed to break into D.C.’s professional world. DC felt like ‘LinkedIn heaven’ and the program turned into real opportunities that built my resume and my career for post-grad.”

Jacob QuillJournalism Major

“Working in D.C. through WMI has changed my perspective. I’ve grown more independent and confident and I gained hands-on experience and a real sense of purpose, through both the internship and our CMCI classes, with guest speakers and networking events. I’ve learned so much!”

Sydney LodatoAdvertising Major

“The WMI internship program opened doors I never thought possible—between the internships, networking, and real-world experiences in D.C., I gained hands on skills and connections that will bring me far beyond the classroom after college.”
