  3. Internship readiness checklist and skills plan
  4. Submission support and follow-up timelines

Case example

A computer science applicant wanted a strong co-op option. We guided them toward a mid-sized campus with strong employer ties, mapped a term-by-term co-op plan, and aligned coursework with internship expectations.
