New View is a community for out-of-state, first-year women who have made UA their home away from home. New View is for any student who wants to build community, foster lasting friendships, learn about student success resources, and engage in the campus community through student involvement opportunities.

There are two components to the program: regional small groups and monthly whole group socials.

As a part of New View, members commit to attending our monthly large group socials on the final Monday of each month from 3:00 – 4:30 PM. As a member, you can expect to engage in community building activities throughout the year as a whole group and in small group hangouts. You will have the opportunity to connect with on-campus, women student leaders as New View Mentors and leaders in the UA professional community. New View will introduce you to academic and success resources at The University of Alabama to prepare you for success.

Who are New View Mentors?

New View Mentors are a dynamic group of students who support the New View participants in their transition from high school to college at UA. 

The New View Mentors experience includes attending whole group socials on the last Monday of each month, planning and hosting small group regional meetups and meeting twice with the New View Coordinator. 

The goal of the New View Mentors is to interact with the first-year students in New View and provide opportunities for connection and community.

2023-2024 New View Mentors:

New View Mentor structure has 3 components:

1. Whole group socials on the last Monday of the month. These will take place from 3:00-4:30pm.
2. Small group socials with students based on your state/region arranged and planned during the first two weeks of each month by you as New View Mentors assigned to a group. These can be as chill or formal as you want to make it! Go hang out on the Quad or arrange for everyone to meet out for lunch/dinner somewhere, up to you!
3. Two meetings with FYE’s New View Coordinator, Christina Gooden, to ensure leadership development and support is being provided. One meeting during the first month of school and one meeting during the last month of school.
