Description of the tool:

Studying in higher education is demanding whether you have specific needs or not and can be very stressful. The mentorship program should be developed whereby students will receive a mentor - another student who is in the middle of their education willing to give time and support to a new student. Students receiving a mentor are expected to be a mentor for a new student later during their education.
