2025 Jump Start Mentee Application

Jump Start is a peer mentoring program dedicated to connecting students with similar backgrounds, interests, and perspectives. The Jump Start program participants will engage in a Pre-Advantage week experience designed to foster community among students, faculty, and staff. Through this experience, students will discover opportunities for involvement, gain awareness of university resources, and receive tips for both wellness and academic success. Additionally, students will be paired with a mentor during their first academic year to provide friendship, guidance, and support as they navigate the college experience.
