Apply to be a Psi Chi Mentor!
Mentor applications are now open for the 2022-23 academic year!
Apply to join the Psi Chi Mentorship Program by September 19th, 2022 for an opportunity to change first-year students' lives for the better!
For many, the first year of college is incredibly daunting. Mentorship allows you to be a key piece in making first-year Drexel students feel like they have a place on campus and, more importantly, a friend to go to for help.
Prospective mentors must be members of Psi Chi in good academic standing (GPA > 3.0) at Drexel University. We are seeking candidates who are motivated individuals with a passion for helping others. Psychological research and/or co-op experience are a plus, but not required for acceptance to the program.
While we can't offer credit hours for your participation, we can promise the time you commit to this program will be valued by your organization and those students under your wing. Mentorship provides opportunities for growth in countless faculties, and we hope you will consider taking part in this incredible program.
Expectations
Psi Chi mentors are expected to provide support for first year students by:
- Making availability for periodic check-ins.
- Connecting mentees with resources when needed or requested.
- Providing extra support to mentees during midterms & finals.
- Maintaining contact with the Director of Mentorship, fellow mentors, and students throughout the term.
