The University Studies Peer Mentor Program is now accepting applications for students to become Peer Mentors for the 2012-2013 academic year. We are seeking academically successful, upper-division PSU undergraduate or graduate students to apply for these excellent leadership and teaching opportunities.

The University Studies Peer Mentor Program at Portland State University plays an integral role in the Freshman Inquiry (FRINQ) and Sophomore Inquiry (SINQ) courses. Over 100 undergraduate and graduate Peer Mentors work directly with the FRINQ and SINQ faculty to support students by role-modeling and developing the skills needed to succeed at the university. Given the nature of their work, and their frequent professional development trainings, Peer Mentors also benefit by developing strong leadership, listening, and communication skills, making them highly sought after candidates in the workplace and in graduate programs

All applicants must have a 3.25 minimum GPA. Undergraduates who will have successfully completed 90 credits or more by September 2012 may apply to become Peer Mentors for Freshman Inquiry classes. Students enrolled in and admitted to graduate programs by September 2012 may apply to become Graduate Mentors for Sophomore Inquiry. Two letters of recommendation are required. One of the letters of recommendation must be an academic reference.

All mentors receive a form of tuition remission and a monetary award or stipend.

Applications are due January 17, 2012.

Please post and/or share this information with your students.
