Become a Mentor
Mentors have a tremendous impact and are part of the reason the undergraduate pathways programs retain and graduate scholars at rates higher than the University average. All of the Undergraduate pathways programs involve a faculty or staff mentor. These mentors volunteer time during their workday to share their experiences and perspectives with undergraduates.
Mentors are recruited on a rolling basis during the spring semester. They must be available for a half-day training during the summer prior to the academic year they intend to begin mentoring. Please complete the Undergraduate Pathways Programs Mentoring Application or reach out to Clare Fitzgerald.
