  • Strive For College Uconn Chapter-Mentoring Program

    Hello Fellow Students,

    I wanted to forward along an amazing opportunity particularly if you are interested in college access and mentoring!

    Did you have a mentor that you credit with helping you apply to colleges by inspiring you and offering guidance?

    If you didn't, do you think that if you had had a mentor you would have been less stressed and more prepared?

    Does the idea of being a mentor to a high school student who might not otherwise end up going to college after high school without the information and support you could provide sound good to you?

    Then check out Strive for College! Strive for College is a mentoring program that connects motivated high school students with mentors at top colleges to provide college guidance and support. Mentoring with Strive is a great opportunity to develop leadership skills, make a difference, and inspire students (who'll look up to you and hope to follow in your footsteps) while offering guidance during the college admissions process.

    • Anyone who has and wants to improve his/her leadership skills can apply!
    • First meeting will be determined according to the availability of the members
    • You can help a qualified students go to college. 
    • If you are interested in this program. Send an email with your resume and transcript to clara.ramirez@uconn.edu AND sign up here: https://ustrive.com/mentor/register/uconn.

    Best Regards,
    Clara Ramirez
