Career Closet
Free professional clothing for students and alumni!
About the Career Closet
The Career Closet is a space where students/alumni can find free, professional clothing to help set them apart for an interview, internship, career fair, or any other professional event in their lives.
Open for visitors Monday through Friday, from 9am-4pm, by appointment only
The only reason I was able to compete in the XMC Case Competition this year was because of the career closet….I didn't have enough money to go out and buy a suit to compete. Lucky for me, I was taking a class with Cat at the time and she told me about how I could get a suit for free….The career closet is a huge help for students like me who need formal attire but don't have the resources to go get it themselves.
