Alumni

The primary purpose of Career Development and Academic Advising is to provide services for currently enrolled students. As time permits, individual career counseling is available for all recent graduates. If you live outside central Florida, you may contact us at career@stetson.edu or 386-822-7315.

Alumni are Stetson University's most valuable resource for helping current students with career decision-making and job and internship searches. There is a variety of ways you can make a difference. Sharing your support and knowledge as a working professional and alum is a great way to give back and help current students.
