Peer mentoring for first-generation and transfer students, built on the platform where the research began.
Connected Futures pairs incoming students with trained peer mentors who use goal setting, weekly check-ins, and secure messaging on MentorPRO. Program staff follow every match from a supervision dashboard and step in when a check-in signals trouble. The model is now being extended to additional campuses.
Engagement is through the roof compared to what we looked like last year. MentorPRO has become the linchpin of those connections.
