Terminology

Mentee: A student receiving mentoring – often in first year or a new student to the campus.
Carleton University is dedicated to ensuring students get the support they need to meet their academic, social and personal goals. Mentoring is a great way to make connections with members of the Carleton community who can help you navigate life at the university. Mentors are trained upper-year students who have the benefit of having gone through it before and can help guide you toward success by speaking from experience and introducing you to the various support services available on campus.
Check out the following mentoring programs available at Carleton and if you’re an upper year student, consider getting involved! Many of our mentoring programs are available to add to your Co-Curricular Record if you do decide to participate.
