Become a Virtual College Prep Mentor

What Mentors Do:

Our After-School Virtual College Preparation Fellowship Program Uses a More-Than-Academic Approach.

As a mentor, you'll support a high school junior or senior in 3 ways.

Identity-Affirming Activities


  • During the bi-weekly meetings, you'll also help to build your mentee's confidence, affirm their identity and lived experiences through  through identity-affirming activities. These activities are designed to give our program participants the space to address racial, cultural, and socioeconomic tensions related to the college preparation and transition process.


Transitional Support
