Professional Experiences Grants (PEGs)

REAL-WORLD EXPERIENCE = REAL-WORLD SUCCESS

Professional experiences ARE the first step toward LOCK haven students finding the career of their dreams!

Your gift to support a Professional Experience Grant (PEG) at The Haven offsets the cost of high-impact experiential learning — such as faculty-mentored research, internships, study abroad, creative performances, and professional conference attendance — giving students the opportunity to apply what they learn in the classroom to real-world situations that help then hit the ground running upon graduating.

  • Introducing students to new cultures, places, perspectives, and professional experiences.

  • Helping students develop a professional and alumni network that optimizes career success.
