"My semester at NYU DC was both life changing and career-defining. I was able to share a building with some of NYU's most politically active and engaged minds. My internship at Congress allowed me to work for a ranking member of the Energy & Commerce Committee. It informed the decisions I'm making now about my career and post-college life. I highly recommend a semester at NYU DC if you're interested in making change through government or public policy."
