Instead of spending time on extensive research and competition for internships, Lesley students increasingly embark on their educational paths with a guaranteed internship or field placement at an organization of their choice. This allows students to focus on making their experience truly enriching.


Upon graduation, Maine Scholars receive priority job consideration from their internship or field placement organization, ensuring a smoother transition into the workforce.

Students receive hands-on support from faculty but also from their peers going to the same organizations for an internship or field placement. This gives them a built-in cohort with a strong sense of community while they pursue their careers.
