Join us for an afternoon of college mentorship, as we host a panel and mix and mingle session with over 70 high school students who are about to begin their college application journey.

At this event we will ask alumni to share their stories about their college experiences, tips for preparing for college, and career exploration. Our student body is diverse and not restricted to any one group or demographic.  Alumni will also have the option to sign up us as mentor/editors for our October application editing workshops. This event is not restricted to Yale alumni; alumni from other schools will be present, along with current college students.
