A week of events is planned for students, faculty, and staff to learn about Elon's programs in major metropolitan areas around the country.
Elon provides unique academic and professional opportunities at our National Campus locations around the country through Study USA programs. There are many upcoming opportunities to learn more about all of the programs.

Drop in to meet previous participants of the Elon in Charlotte program and ask questions of faculty and staff to learn more about the Charlotte experience and how it might align with your personal, professional, and academic goals. Enjoy a coffee on us while we chat about the Charlotte summer and fall programs! Previous participants will share stories about their internship, the neighborhood location, activities, meeting alumni, and how the program benefitted their career goals. We will also be sharing information about the new Queen City Internship Program that helps fund unpaid internships or internships at nonprofits and government entities.
Study USA at College Coffee

In New York City, you could be doing a public relations internship at a cool agency in Manhattan and then catch a Broadway show to see an Elon alum perform. In Los Angeles, out-of-the-box, creative film assignments await you for your reel as well as priceless art at the Getty Museum and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. The possibilities are endless!
