How the Application Process Works

Our application process is designed to be user-friendly and efficient. Here's what you need to know about the application:

1. Basic Information: We'll start by asking for some basic details, like your name, contact information, university, major, and any extracurricular activities you're involved in.
2. College Essays: Share any college admission essays you've written or similar pieces that demonstrate your ability to communicate effectively. This helps us understand your writing style and communication skills.
3. Proof of Identity: To ensure authenticity, we'll need a valid proof of identification, such as your university ID or driver's license.

How We Select Mentors

Once you submit your application, our team will review it thoroughly. We'll look at your academic achievements, your passion for mentoring, and your ability to guide high school students through the college admissions process.

If you're selected, we'll reach out to you for an interview. This is a chance for us to get to know you better and for you to ask any questions you have about the program. It's also an opportunity for you to show us how excited you are about mentoring.

Becoming a Mentor

After the selection process, if you're approved as a mentor, you'll gain access to our platform. Here, you can set your availability for tutoring sessions. High school students will then have the option to sign up for sessions based on your availability.

Remember, being a mentor means more than just helping with college applications – you have the chance to make a real impact on these students' lives and futures.
