Would You Like To Mentor or Help Recruit The Next Generation of Terps?

Are you an Terp looking to make an impact on your local community? Through the partnership of the Division of Student Affairs' MentorMe program and the Office of Undergraduate Admissions' Peer2Peer (P2P) program we seek to improve the pathways for future Terps to successfully gain access to UMD. Applicants must be able to have open and honest conversations about their experience at UMD while communicating their experiences in an impactful and positive manner.

MentorMe mentors will be paired with an incoming first-year student to aid their transition to the University of Maryland. By developing a relationship with an incoming student, the mentor can give a student their first personal connection to UMD. Through a one-on-one mentorship, mentors will be able to develop leadership skills to make an impact on the UMD community.

Peer2Peer (P2P) will give current University of Maryland students the opportunity to be involved as peer ambassadors in recruitment efforts in urban, diverse communities such as Prince Georges County, Baltimore City, Baltimore County and Washington D.C. We are seeking student volunteers who are willing to give their UMD testimony and travel with the Office of Undergraduate Admissions to not only represent UMD, but to also support prospective students as they navigate and complete the application process at UMD. Student volunteers will attend college fairs, participate on panels, assist with high school visits / workshops and assist with the EDGE Overnight Stay Program and the Maryland Ascent Program.

The deadline to apply for both programs is Friday, September 24. If you have any additional questions about either program please reach out to Albert Clarke via aclarkev@umd.edu
