As a part of this peer-to-peer mentoring program, students in their second year and beyond will serve as mentors to first students. This mentorship may entail sharing various life, academic and administration-related experiences, among other things. Each mentor-mentee pair will be required to meet at least twice per quarter. A small stipend will be provided if possible, to enable outings with your mentor/mentee such as going for brunch or coffee, visiting a museum, or other activities.
The 2024 cohort of International Allies is our largest ever, with >300 first-year students and >100 peer mentors!
