Manhattanville Mentoring Program (MMP)
MMP connects incoming Manhattanville students with successful upperclassmen in order to help them with the transition to college life, with emphasis on successful academics and student leadership. Through one-on-one mentoring and group activities, mentors not only provide support, but create an environment that nurtures and values the diversity of each student. Students are matched through their First Year Program groups and may also register individually for a mentor to meet with on a weekly basis. Our mentors put on a number of educational programs to meet the needs of their mentees including registration help, film screenings, and off-campus trips. Mentors must have over a 3.0 GPA and remain in good standing at the college. Mentor recruitment takes place during the Spring term. Mentors receive extensive training on a variety of topics.
