What is the HDFS Peer Mentoring Program?
The HDFS Peer Mentoring Program is a year-long program providing incoming first-generation* college students and/or students of color with a supportive community to navigate known barriers and create equitable success in the transition to college. Incoming students receive personalized mentorship from an HDFS junior or senior who identifies as a first-generation college student or a student of color. Students earn degree-applicable credit through a 3-credit course that meets weekly. See program details and highlights below.
