About the role
StandOut Connect is a program that matches high school students with internships. We have been featured in Forbes for contributions to education and were created with the help of investment from The University of Chicago's Polsky Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation. Most high school students find internships through personal connections, but not everyone has a family friend in a field that interests them. That’s why we created a program that matches high school students with companies founded by top university alumni who have previously only accepted high school interns from within their personal network. Now, instead of applying to competitive state programs, you can connect directly with unique companies in fields that excite you.
