Peer Mentoring

Rasmussen students can connect with a Peer Mentor via the Tutoring Service.

Peer Mentors are certified tutors who are trained to show you how to navigate the entire process of being a student while supporting you in a variety of aspects, including those beyond academics.

A Peer Mentor:

  • Has been exactly where you are right now
  • Shares the expectations that lay ahead
  • Provides tips that save you time and effort
  • Speaks directly to your concerns of the unknown
  • Recommends regular touch points to gauge progress and stay on track

New Student Peer Mentors:

  • Show new students how to balance life's obligations along with school to be successful in their education and show them the ropes of college life
  • Share strategies that have worked for them and help new students develop their own strategies for:
    • Navigation online courses
    • Managing time effectively
    • Effective reading, note taking, studying, and test-taking
    • Proper channels of communication

In short, a New Student Peer Mentor can show new students what it takes to be a successful student.
