Academic Mentor Program
The Academic Mentor Program is designed for first-year students on academic probation to work with trained upper-class student academic mentors. Mentors will work to identify the needs of each mentee and develop a success plan accordingly. Some topics students may work on:
- Learning new study skills to positively change their study behavior
- Recognizing their learning styles
- Improving time management skills
- Setting academic and personal goals
Mentors will support, coach, and advise the mentee with any useful information needed to succeed academically. Contact with mentors will occur one-on-one, in small groups, via email, and/or over the phone.
