Mentoring

The program is offered to new freshmen or transfer students and participation is voluntary.  Mentors are local volunteers who are academic professionals and graduate students, current or retired faculty, and community members.  Each year, about 1/3 of new I-Promise Scholars are matched with one of over 100 available mentors.

Specific program features include specialized Match Me meetings, Mentor Orientation with continued training throughout the year, mentor/mentee socials, Mentor Appreciation Reception, and more!
