Check-ins will include conversations on helping students set up a work plan, identify resources, and holding them accountable. This is a wonderful opportunity to build a meaningful and truly personal relationship with a First Graduate® college student.

When: This is a one semester commitment September-December, with the option to extend. Estimated time commitment is 5-10hr/month. The schedule is set up by the student and coach so it is flexible.

Who: We are looking for individuals who want to take part in a more committed volunteer opportunity, and are comfortable taking the initiative in building a relationship with a student. It is also helpful if coaches are comfortable navigating college resources.
