Peer Mentors Program
The Peer Mentors Program connects incoming Manhattanville students with successful upper-class students in order to help them with the transition to college life, with emphasis on successful academics and student life experiences. The Peer Mentors are student leaders who foster a holistic academic and social college environment for first year students. Their focus is on building a healthy relationship with the first year students, offering support, care, and resources. They build a solid connection between first year students and the larger Manhattanville College Community by providing individualized attention, skill based workshops, and hosting monthly large scale programs throughout the academic year. Mentors must have over a 3.2 GPA and remain in good standing at the college. Mentor recruitment takes place during the Fall Semester. Mentors receive extensive training on a variety of topics.
