Kelley to Kelley is a peer mentoring program that matches incoming first year Kelley students with current sophomore, junior and senior Kelley students. Mentors are volunteers who want to embrace the School's tradition of paying it forward and share what they have learned with the next class of Kelleys. Mentors can help mentees feel less overwhelmed as they transition to college and navigate new academic challenges, manage stress and maintain wellness.
All incoming, directly admitted first-year Kelley students are invited and encouraged to participate. Mentees will complete a brief profile and be matched with an upper division Kelley student who has similar interests or experiences.
