United Negro College Fund (UNCF)

Research and Institutional Engagement Intern

May - August 2018 • Atlanta, GA

What I liked

I loved getting to plan and execute an annual convening for all of the UNCF member institutions, where their Presidents, Provosts, and Senior faculty attended. I mainly enjoyed getting to do research on each institution and present finding for them and to them.

What I wish was different

I sometimes wished I didnt have to work 5 days a week, 9-5pm for 10 weeks, becuase I essentially felt like I didnt catch a break from the academic year.

Advice

NETWORK, NETWORK, NETWORK, because I was able to gain a 10k scholarship after sharing with them my financial hardships.
