Mentoring Program

In partnership with the Marlington Alumni Association, we are looking to connect students with experienced Marlington alumni to offer career guidance and support
Once a month we are hosting Career Talks, with alumni who have signed up through the MAA, to expose our students to different career paths.
Our first presentation was today, during Academic Assist. Please have a conversation with your student about the mentoring program, or career talk, and visit https://www.marlingtonalumni.org/program-overview.html for more information.
If interested in being assigned a mentor, students should visit the following website and complete the mentee questionnaire.
