Meet With a Counselor

Wherever you are in the process—from not knowing where to start to finalizing the details of your job offer—meeting one-on-one with a counselor will afford you clarity and control over your career development. We encourage you to establish a relationship with UCS in freshman year, so that we can help you to make the most of your time at Yale while laying the foundations for what will come after.
