Lesley University tirelessly works on new ways to provide lifelong support across the arc of our graduates’ lives. Whether it means being part of a professional networking group or having a direct line to other alums in your area, Lesley is here to assist you in your quest for success. Here are some of the ways we do this today:
Cohorts
In a growing number of our academic programs, students are linked in a cohort – a group of students following a similar educational track – and remain in that cohort throughout their time at Lesley. Lesley convenes these groups regularly after graduation, holding support groups, online workshops and talks from noted professionals to answer questions, build skills and inspire.
Alumni
Graduates can reach out to a network of nearly 100,000 other alumni, for career advice and added support.
Partnerships
Through our special partnerships with school systems and organizations, graduates who completed internships with one of our partners (known as Scholars) are given priority consideration for open positions. In many cases, Lesley also works with these partners to assist their new employees with continuing education and support.
Threshold
Our Threshold Lifelong Support Program focuses on adults 22 and older with diverse learning styles, helping them live and work with confidence. Independent living coaches help participants in the program acquire the skills needed to live independently.
Alumni Studio
Our unique Alumni Studio gives graduates of our Art + Design programs the chance to keep creating and collaborating at Lesley. Graduates in digital animation, illustration, photography and film can book equipment and space at the Studio to develop projects while also experiencing the sense of belonging they felt while studying at Lesley. Take a look at our Art & Design studios.
When you become a Lesley Lynx, you become forever linked to those who have similar career interests and experiences. Once a Lynx, always linked.
