Specifics of the Mentor Program

College Mentor

Our mentors are currently attending Ivy-League or equivalently academically rigorous American universities. They meet with students in a virtual group or one-on-one setting and get to know each student’s specific needs and goals.

Mentors will keep students on track for being ready to apply for college with a calendar of what you need to be doing each month. The first two years will be exploratory and informational and as students progress through high school the focus will narrow to exactly what forms you need to be filling out, tests to be taken, and other specific preparation for college applications.

While students work on their Dual Diploma they will also be matched with a college mentor.
