Brescia's Mentoring Program - Student Mentees
"A lot of people have gone further than they thought they could because
someone else thought they could."

Share Your Knowledge, Experience & Passion: Mentor a First-Year Student
A mentor shares her wisdom, experience, and skills with a less experienced individual. It is through this exchange that a mentor can truly make a difference in the life of another.
Brescia's Mentoring Program offers a unique Student Mentee experience that serves as an excellent opportunity for you to successfully transition to beyond Brescia. Through the guidance, encouragement, and support of your Community Mentor, you will begin to build a framework to support your future career aspirations.
Who can be a Student Mentee?
Senior students - students in their 3rd, 4th and/or graduating years - will be matched with a Community Mentor or Brescia alumna. Mentors are professional women who will share their expertise, awareness, and experiences with a senior student.
Matches are made by the Student Services Staff based on information provided by both students and prospective mentors in their applications. As a result, we cannot always guarantee a match.
