Apple has launched a new mentorship program aimed at first-generation college first-year and second-year students majoring in finance, economics, and accounting.
Launch@Apple includes support from Apple employees with the possibility of job shadowing and paid internships. Furthermore, the program matches students one-on-one with Apple mentors so that they can provide resources for learning and future opportunities.

Seeing as number 13 on the list says, “If you are not a U.S. citizen,” it’s fair to say that Launch is taking students from all around the world, though how many will actually get into the program remains to be seen.
