WSJ Your Money Briefing · University ‘Co-Op’ Programs Are Becoming More Popular · 21 Aug 2024 podcast

And a lot of times, like, they've already invested six months into you to really work with you and train you, so they have more of an incentive to hire you.

So we saw with Northeastern specifically a really dramatic shift in the number of applications and their acceptance rate.

So about like 10 years ago, it was in the 30 percent.

And now it's like less than 6 percent.

So it's gotten to the Ivy League level of selectivity.

And that could be because of various different things like marketing and ways that they accept students.

But the co-op program is what they attribute to.

their lower acceptance rate too because it's just becoming so popular and students are craving that work experience while they're in school.

For most of them, they attribute a lot of their career success to the co-op program because oftentimes

Students at Northeastern and Drexel will do multiple co-ops.

So they'll do like two or three.

And maybe their first co-op wasn't what they thought it would be and they didn't like some of the work that they had to do.

And that led them to pursue a different type of field for their second co-op and maybe their third.

Their experiences throughout their co-ops, whether they were good or bad, helped give them an understanding of what they want to do after college.

It really gave them a head start on that to actually work and figure out what they like and what they didn't like while they were still in school.

Yeah.

So there is a company called Zaxby's Coffee, and they're a chain all across the East and the Midwest.

And they've partnered with more than 30 universities.

And they basically have these really coveted positions called student CEOs.
