Matching Process

Once you are fully active in the program, the program staff will match you with a mentor based on your common interests and hobbies.

It may take 3-4 weeks to complete the process after your application is received. There are usually many registrations in September, so applying early may speed things up.

Once you are matched with your mentor, you will remain matched until the end of the school year (May of next year).
