Growing mentorship impact for first-year college students
Augusta University will increase its mentorship offerings for incoming students this fall with the help of several hundred undergraduate and graduate student mentors. Mentorship in higher education has long been a high-impact practice in retention and producing student success, but formal programs are lacking. A 2021 Student Voice survey from Inside Higher Ed and College Pulse found that only one in five students who have a mentor were paired through a formal mentorship program. Among students who did participate in formal mentorship programs, 86 percent were satisfied with their experience.
