WHAT IS NASH U?

The Nash U Leadership Internship is an opportunity for high school seniors to gain foundational professional leadership skills to prepare for college, career, and their unique postsecondary journey. Leadership Interns will contribute to SNLP's programming through community organizing while developing key tools to be successful in professional and academic spaces.

DURING THE PROGRAM NASHERS:

  • Develop transferable skills to support them throughout college and their careers, including collaboration, communication, time management, and self-advocacy. Nashers will also refine their resumes, practice interviewing, and gain financial literacy.

  • Practice putting ideas into action by designing and implementing a social justice project to uplift their community.

The Nash U Leadership Internship community is all about giving and receiving support as you and your peers prepare to transition from high school to college and your career. This program aims to build a network of care and shared learning.

What Do Nashers Say About It?

“I’ve learned I have the power to change the world. I’m going to John Jay to study Criminal Justice with a minor in counseling. Without Sadie Nash in my corner, I don’t know if I’d have thought going into that major would be a move for me.”

— Nasher, Nash U
