The Work Exemption Program (WEP) is part of Columbia University’s enhanced financial aid program for undergraduate students in Columbia College and Columbia Engineering. Recipients receive a Columbia Grant to support their pursuit of unpaid internships, research projects, and community outreach, locally, nationally, and internationally.
Kelly’s WEP experience:
“WEP not only supports FGLI students at Columbia in their internships but also supports organizations that otherwise wouldn’t be able to accept FGLI students who hope to work with them.”
