---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Abhi Ramesh <aramesh at wharton.upenn.edu> Date: Thu, Jun 15, 2017 at 7:05 AM Subject: Fellowship Opportunity for Swarthmore College Students To: Newhall <newhall at cs.swarthmore.edu> I wanted to forward some information about the Horizons Fellowship. You may have received some information in the past from us. Past Horizonites have come from schools like Harvard, Princeton, UPenn/Wharton, Columbia, and more. We've had engineers, business students, liberal arts majors and designers take our program - they've gone on to receive product management, engineering, and venture capital offers from firms such as Google, Zappos.com, Yelp, Optimizely, Redfin, Insight Venture Partners, and Slack. Others are winning global hackathons and building their own startup ideas. Over the coming year we'll be expanding our programs and giving even more students the superpower of coding and technology. Once again, I would be thrilled and honored if you could forward out this opportunity to interested students in your department. Our programs are open to students of any year and any major - we encourage candidates with diverse backgrounds and interests to apply!
