Mentoring
Do you have questions about being a student at Northwestern that only other students can answer? Alternatively, would you like to share your student experience with someone who is just entering your discipline? Maybe you want to network?
If you answered yes to any of those questions, then the Peer Mentoring program is for you.
Northwestern offers a Mentoring Program. We arrange upper tri students with lower tri students in mentor-mentee pairs. All you have to do is fill out an application and we do the rest. Please see Angela Current for more information at acurrent@nwhealth.edu or Nathan Servey at nservey@nwhealth.edu.
