Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences - Peer Mentoring Program
Whether you're coming to university straight from high school, previous studies, or the workplace - starting university is a big step, and having someone to guide you through those early weeks can make all the difference 🌟
What's the FASS Peer Mentoring Program?
The program will connect with a Peer Mentor in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, and has been designed for you to:
- Hear from a senior student (your Peer Mentor) who's been where you are
- Discover tips to make the most of your time at university
- Find your community and make friendships that may last a lifetime!
This is a 4-week program from Week 1 to 4 of Semester 1, starting with the Launch. After the Launch, you'll have ongoing chances to catch up with your Peer Mentor and group of peers.
Launch of the FASS Peer Mentoring Program!🎉
To kickstart the program, a Launch will be held on Wednesday 25 February at MacLaurin Hall, Quadrangle. 11:00am to 1:00pm (Undergraduate) and 3:00pm to 5:00pm (Postgraduate).

What if I can't attend the Launch, or my Peer Mentor can't?
If you’re unable to attend the Launch, you can still participate in the Peer Mentoring Program to be connected with a Peer Mentor. Simply go ahead to register via the form on this page, and select 'No' when asked about your Launch attendance.
Sometimes Peer Mentors also aren’t able to attend the Launch due to classes or work, but this won’t affect your experience in the program. You’ll still be matched with a Mentor and have the chance to meet during Weeks 1 to 4. We’ll provide details on connecting with your Mentor and more activities so you don’t miss out!
The Launch is a great chance to meet other students and learn more about the program, so we encourage you to come along even if your Mentor can’t be there!
