Sign up for the alumni mentor program here.
This program is designed for current nursing students who wish to receive support from School of Nursing alumni as they transition from student nurses to professional nursing. Interested students are matched with mentors based on personal and professional interest, similar educational backgrounds, as well as future career and educational goals. This program allows new nurses to talk openly about the NCLEX, career exploration, networking, emotional support, career goals and interests, and professional skill development.
The program formally runs through the academic year (September to April). Mentoring pairs decide how often they will meet or talk and what types of conversations and activities they will engage in together. The School of Nursing team will recommend connecting at least once per month but ultimately it is up to the pair to discuss and decide.
