Transfer Student Mentor Program The Transfer Student Mentor Program provides an excellent opportunity for current senior transfer students to guide and coach new transfer students during their first year in the School of Business Administration. Mentors of this program act as leaders, coaches, tutors and role models. Each quarter they will meet with an assigned group of students 4-5 times to help them establish a network at UCR and succeed in their classes. Mentors have the opportunity to run 3-4 workshops during the year that will help new transfer students acclimate to UCR and the challenges they may face as a new student on campus.
Benefits include developing communication and leadership skills, interacting with their peers, and priority registration in two upper division Business classes. For more information please contact Heather Luth, SoBA Transfer Student Mentor Program Advisor, at heather.luth@ucr.edu
