March 1 - April 30: Mentoring Sessions Take Place

We encourage mentors and students to create their own, personalized experience. You may choose to meet in-person, virtually, or create a hybrid experience. You will need to commit to meeting for one-day in person or a minimum of three times virtually for at least one hour for each meeting. Or, you may develop a hybrid experience that consists of meeting in-person for at least three hours with supplemental meetings virtually. It's up to you!
