Interested in Hosting an Externship?
We invite interested companies and organizations to host an extern from Episcopal. Your support provides these bright and ambitious students with an incredible opportunity to learn more about possible career paths as they prepare to move into the world as courageous leaders.
We hope that externships can be in person, and we are open to discussing other alternatives as necessary. Students receive academic credit for completing the externship, and therefore, the positions are typically unpaid. Episcopal covers the transportation and food expenses for students.
