opportunities for students to meet professionals in their

field. Through the University’s networking events and career fairs, I have received several

internship offers. This summer, I interned for a legal services

organization here in New York. Although I already worked

for several years in my home country, I discovered that US work culture is very different.

This experience has taught me so much, and I have gained an even deeper understanding of

what I studied in class.”
