  • This program is not intended to be used for mentoring or consulting services. If you are interested in a mentor/mentee experience, please click here for more info on our Mentor Match program, or click here for Title IX consulting solutions information.
  • Participants are grouped with each other in hopes of fostering conversations surrounding professional goals, resources, and support within their Title IX role. This application aids in grouping participants together for the best possible experience, so please take your time and respond to the open-ended questions with as much detail as possible.
  • Applications will be accepted until January 16, 2026. Participants will be notified by January 30, 2026, at the latest.

  • Everyone who applies to this program will be assigned to a group that best fits them, if possible; however, there may be instances when an applicant’s networking preferences do not align with other applicants. In this scenario, we will reach out to you to see if you have other networking preferences; if not, you are welcome to apply again for the following round.
