Career Closet

The Career Closet provides students with FREE, gently-used professional clothing items for interviews, career fairs, and other professional networking events.

The goal of this program is to help relieve the stress of affording professional clothing and allows students to focus on creating positive first impressions when networking.

Any current UL Lafayette student can visit the Career Closet located at 210 E. St. Mary Blvd. to shop for suits, dresses, ties, belts, shoes, and other professional clothing items.

The Campus Cupboard is located in the same space as well. The pantry provides free, nonperishable items to meet students' temporary food needs.

Students who visit the Career Closet will be asked to present their ULIDs.
