AFSA: eMentorship Launch
Incoming first years - the most exciting time of your life is coming up... do you think you're ready?! 2A students and above -- do you remember when you were making the transition from high school to university?
Whether you're a 1A-to-be or a current SAF student who has lived through the experience -- be a part of SAF's FIRST EVER 1A mentorship program! The newly designed eMentorship Program serves as a bridge between high school and university, connecting current SAF students with incoming SAF students before the school year starts. Incoming first years need to be aware of the amount of effort needed to prepare for a successful first year at the School of Accounting and Finance, and through this initiative, upper-year students will be there to serve as one-on-one mentors giving help and advice.
Applications are open now -- be sure to apply by July 25th as a mentor, or August 1st as a mentee!
For more information and access to the application form, please go to ementorship.ca/getting-involved.
Special thanks to John SooWon Youn Samantha Tjong Bryon Lee Helen Tang Samantha Pendon for their hard work in making this happen!
