There are many benefits to having a person "on your team" as you navigate your first year at Aquinas. Apart from offering academic advice, a mentor can help you:

• Connect with resources that will make your college transition smoother.
• Meet others with similar interests, backgrounds, and experiences.
• Get familiar with your college campus more easily.
• Overcome challenges and offer encouragement.
• Identify clubs and activities on campus that will help you hone your leadership skills.
• Learn to advocate for yourself throughout college.
• Find opportunities to get involved in the Greater Grand Rapids community.
