Internship has become an essential component of higher education, providing a vital bridge between academic knowledge and professional practice. This study assessed the internship performance of BSBA Major in Financial Management students from Academic Years 2022-2023 to 2024-2025, focusing on the connection between academic preparation and workplace execution. By undergoing hands-on training, learners are provided with a strategic environment to put theory into action and develop career readiness. Improving active student participation in internships offers a unique learning experience that is often limited within traditional academia. Using quantitative descriptive research design, data were collected from 141 interns to evaluate their technical proficiency, interpersonal skills, and overall professional maturity. The findings highlight the importance of internships in facilitating successful societal entry and long-term career development for university graduates.
