Honors Connections Peer Mentor Application
The Honors College Peer Mentoring Program is designed to help first-year students adjust to life at UB and to the Honors College experience. Our intent is that through this program, our incoming first-year students feel welcome at UB and excited to be a part of the Honors College community.
As an Honors Connections Program Mentor you will be expected to:
• Attend a brief virtual mentor orientation this summer (details to follow)
• Reach out to your mentee(s) prior to the start of the fall semester to welcome them to UB/Honors
• Meet with your mentee(s) once during the first two weeks of classes via zoom or in-person (each mentor may have 1-3 mentees)
• Encourage participation in Honors College and campus-wide activities
• Help answer general questions or concerns your mentee(s) may have
**If selected, Honors Peer Mentors will be required to submit a short profile of themselves to be shared with their peer mentee, including a photo.**
Deadline to apply to be a mentor is Friday, June 10, 2022.
