The Medical Sciences Student Union (MSSU) Mentorship Program pairs first-year Life Sciences students and beyond with seniors whom they can continuously ask for guidance on courses, resources, or just tips from someone who has been in their shoes before! Mentee and mentor pairs will meet once a month to discuss the theme of the month, which can range from mental wellness, campus life, program selection to preparing for exams. You will also be able to attend MSSU socials designed exclusively for you! For more info, please click here.
