BRIDGING FURMAN AND NEW YORK CITY

The Furman Metropolitan Fellowship is an alumni led grant program established in 2015 to create a bridge between Furman University students and New York City internship connections and community.

The recipients of the fellowship will commit to interning in New York City for a full summer and are supported by alumni to promote their success.

The fellowship includes support in finding a summer internship, networking opportunities, mentorship, and financial assistance.
