Mentee Application – Black Alumni of SMU Mentorship Program

The Black Alumni of SMU Mentorship Program is meant to connect Black students and alumni and build meaningful relationships for both mentors and mentees. The program is designed to encourage both personal and professional development for students. Mentorship pairs are encouraged to meet one on one throughout the academic year and participate in activities held by the Office of Alumni Relations, Office of Social Change and Intercultural Engagement (SCIE), and Hegi Family Career Development Center. Mentees will have the opportunity to prepare for their professional career and expand their professional network. Mentors will help provide their mentees with career advice and guidance.
