CAREER SEARCH RESOURCES

Career Services offers a free program for students and alumni called the Career Closet. The Career Closet enables students and alumni to pick and choose from a variety of professional dress clothing styles for free. The closet will include both casual business attire as well as suits for men and women.

Students who wish to use the closet may be referred by an RSU faculty or staff member or make an appointment through the Student Affairs office. Students who use the attire have the option of keeping it or returning it after it has been cleaned.

Career Closet will be funded through donations of gently used, nearly-new professional clothing and monetary donations, which will be used for dry cleaning fees and replenishing the closet as needed.

For more information or to make a donation, contact Student Affairs at [email protected] or 918-343-7579 or visit us at the Dr. Carolyn Taylor Center, Room 201.
