The CMC Career Readiness Effect
About the Soll Center for Student Opportunity
The Soll Center for Student Opportunity is comprised of a dedicated team of professionals providing personalized advising, coaching, mentoring and networking support for students at all stages of their college experience. This support also extends to our alumni post-graduation.
From a student’s first year on campus, the Center facilitates early real-world personal development and career exploration that enable students to recognize, cultivate and translate their interests and strengths into meaningful and exciting real-world experiences. These experiences range from internships, networking treks, industry meet-ups and job shadows, to graduate and professional programs, fellowships, and full-time employment.
CMC is unique in its small but mighty and highly responsive community of CMC alumni, parents, students, faculty and staff. The Center connects students to all the resources across the depth and breadth of the CMC community to help students achieve their personal and professional goals.
