On-Campus Mentor Application

Thank you for your willingness to serve as a mentor in the Heber J. Grant program. Before you complete the application, there are a couple of things that you need to know about being an HJG mentor. As an on-campus mentor, you will work with one mentee here on campus. This involves meeting with them face-to-face on a weekly basis, guiding them as they adjust to the college atmosphere, and helping them gain skills that will improve their quality of life. You will also report back on your mentee's progress throughout the semester. Note that being an on-campus mentor is a two semester commitment. Also, you must be on campus while mentoring on-campus students. Again, thank you for being willing to serve and we look forward to working with you! Mentor Area Leadership Heber J. Grant Program
