Suit Up 2024

It’s Time to Suit Up (In PERSON!)

The Bryan School is partnering with JCPenney to host our 8th annual Suit Up event where Bryan School students have the opportunity to receive FREE* and deeply discounted professional wear (up to 30% off). This year’s event will take place in-store at the Four Seasons Town Center JCPenney for the first time since 2020! Its purpose will remain the same: to help build your professional wardrobe without breaking the bank. This year’s in-store event will be held Sunday, Feb. 4 from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. to help you find the professional outfit that best suits you! The Bryan School will provide a shuttle running back and forth from campus to JCPenney continuously throughout the event (it will pick students up at the corner of Theta/Stirling starting at 6 p.m. on Feb. 4).

*Sponsorship recipients receive a $250 gift card to be used on the purchase of a professional outfit at Suit Up.

Why You Should Participate

As you transition from college to the real world, you will need business professional attire. Whether you need a suit for an interview, a career fair, an internship, or your first day on the job, this is a great opportunity to get a free or discounted suit that makes you exude confidence.

The discounts given during Suit Up are exclusive to Bryan School students and come at a higher percentage than the typical coupons you would find in an advertisement. Suit Up gives you the opportunity to maximize your spending on important items like suits, blouses, dress shirts, skirts, pants, belts, shoes, and more!

If you are unsure of what clothing items you should purchase, it is highly recommended that you focus on business professional and/or business casual wear. You can learn more about these dress codes here.
