The Peer Mentor program has been designed to provide guidance to EUC students. They deliver programming and information sessions to help new undergraduate students transition to university and to the Faculty of Environmental and Urban Change. As a new student you are part of the larger community of York University.
Peer Mentors are trained leaders. They are academically successful, and they can be a positive influence on students by providing sound advice and encouragement.
