The WISE peer mentor program has seen success with the students who participate including a higher 6year graduation rate and higher final GPA than women who did not participate. Mentors are expected to meet with their mentee once a month in person and stay in touch between meetings. You can read more about our program at https://crwg.uic.edu/wise-home/campus/mentoring/.
You can also use this opportunity as your Honors activity.
Thank you,
