Hi, I’m Rowan Ashcroft, a Gryffindor 7th year finishing my N.E.W.T.s this spring. I’m considering Auror training but wonder how competitive entry really is. What’s one thing you wish you’d known before applying to the Ministry? Thank you so much for sharing your experience!

Hello, I’m Wren Bellweather, a Ravenclaw graduating this year. I’m drawn to Curse-Breaking at Gringotts but unsure how much Ancient Runes background matters. Could you share what skills helped you break into that field? I really appreciate you taking the time!

Hello, I’m Marigold Finch, a Hufflepuff finishing my final year at Hogwarts. I’m hoping to become a Magizoologist working with magical creatures abroad. What was your first step after graduation to start that kind of career? Thanks so much for your time and advice!

It’s easy as 1, 2, 3

Frequently Asked Questions

What can I ask?

Literally anything to help with your academic or professional development. There are thousands of alumni, faculty, staff and friends that can help with class projects, building and growing a startup, or figuring out career options.

What's a good question?

Think of something you’re genuinely stuck on: a decision, a path, a role you can’t quite picture. One specific question gets a better answer than a broad one.

Who will see my question?

We will only share your question with a very small number of relevant Alumni.

Will my questions and answers be confidential?

Your question will not be made public. It will be seen only by matched experts and a handful of administrators.
