The CSA Mentorship Program connects newly admitted Asper students with experienced mentors who have similar personal and professional interests. Mentors provide mentees with guidance, advice and support to help them successfully navigate the first year in their degree.
All of the mentors and mentees involved in the program will have opportunities to come together throughout the school year through different events, including group networking, one-on-one connections, and fun team challenges! Members of the program will be added to a communication platform where they will have the chance to interact with other mentors and mentees. Students who are entering their first or second year in Asper may sign up to be a mentee. Students who are at least second-years may apply to become a mentor. This is an excellent way for first year Asper students to make friends with like-minded peers while expanding their networks early on in their careers, and for upper-year students to give back to their community! The deadline to apply for the program is September 22nd, 2023.
