New View Mentors
New View Mentors are a dynamic group of out-of-state rising sophomores, juniors, and seniors at UA who support the New View freshman participants in their transition from high school to college at UA.
The New View Mentors experience may include facilitating whole group meetings, regional small groups, whole group socials, a mid-semester meeting with the New View Coordinator, and monthly Mentor Team meetings. This Mentor role will require Mentors to be at New View programming each Monday afternoon from 3-5 PM in the fall 2025 semester.
The goal of the New View Mentors is to interact with the out-of-state, freshman students in New View and provide opportunities for connection, community, and guidance.
New View Mentor applications for fall 2025 are closed for the fall
