Mentoring

Peer Mentors serve as guides to the university experience, supporting and empowering all ±«ÓãÖ±²¥ students during their academic and social adjustment to ±«ÓãÖ±²¥. Peer Mentors are among the best, brightest, and most diverse ±«ÓãÖ±²¥ students. They have been through the college transition and know some of the challenges you may be facing. Conversations with Peer Mentors are confidential unless there is a danger to self or others.

Peer Mentors can assist you with:

  • Strategies for effective studying, note-taking, test-taking, critical thinking, listening, and reading
  • Strategies for time and stress management
  • Strategies for effective communication and other life skills
  • Personal situations - Peer Mentors will listen to you and offer advice and assistance, which may include referral to other ±«ÓãÖ±²¥ resources if appropriate.
  • Adjusting to life at ±«ÓãÖ±²¥ (particularly for first-year and transfer students)
  • Navigating the university experience

If you need assistance with something that isn't on the list above, and aren't sure where to turn, a Peer Mentor would be happy to hear about your needs and guide you towards the appropriate campus resources. 

Mentoring services are available free of charge to all ±«ÓãÖ±²¥ students. Meet the Mentors to learn more about the Peer Mentors and read their best tips for students!
