    Hi,

    This is Ambrose. I’m a transfer student from Whatcom Community College, and I just got admitted to the Foster School of Business. But I’m still deciding which school to go right now.
    UW is a famous school for sure. I’m really curious about if there are many internships for business students. Also, I would like to know how attainable internships with some big companies, like Boeing, are if I’m able to maintain an outstanding academic performance and actively get involved in professional campus events. I know it’s going to be a tough question to ask, but it really can help me make the decision.
    In addition, in your opinion, what are other advantages that only Foster can offer to enrolled students.
    I would really appreciate if you have a chance to reply my questions. Thanks!

    Best

    Ambrose
