Career Closet

About the Career Closet


The CDI helps students dress for success by providing them with access to professional attire for their upcoming interviews, career fairs and networking events, and internships. Students can choose from our professional wardrobe items including suits, blazers, collared shirts, blouses, slacks, dresses, shoes, and ties.

  • The Career Closet is located in 312 Bancroft Hall and is available during our drop-in hours on Tuesdays/Thursdays from 11 a.m.-12:15 p.m. and by appointment.
  • Students: check out our tips (with examples) for Business Professional and Business Casual attire; learn about other resources on campus for career attire.

The Career Closet is made possible by the generous donations we receive. If you would like to make a clothing donation, please complete the form below.

Clothing Donations


All clothing must be in good condition and be free of rips, holes, tears, and stains. We appreciate donations of contemporary attire; clothing in good condition but outdated styling may be less likely to support students’ success in today’s interview process. We also request professional cleaning prior to donation; items on hangers and in bags are ideal (but not required).
