Alumni Profile
Chereese Langley '18
"I can’t say enough about how great Point Park was for preparing me for the future and my career. Actually getting to know the professors and creating those relationships were huge advantages. I made connections I still have to this day. The small class sizes made it a lot easier for me to focus, and I just felt more valued as a student. The co-op program was also a great resource to jumpstart getting that experience in my profession."

No other school can try to reach Point Park’s level when it comes to experiential learning opportunities," said accounting major Steven Fisher.
