Think back to when you were 18 - did you have all the answers? Chances are, you benefited from the advice and guidance of a trusted adult. Whether it was a professor, employer, or another figure in your life, someone took the time to get to know you and help you grow as a person. College Now invites you to pay it forward and play just such a role.

Share your expertise with college students to help them reach their full potential and graduate from college. Our unique mentoring program is strategically designed to accommodate the schedules of busy students and professionals. When you become a mentor, you join more than 2,000 other Northeast Ohio professionals who have already found that a small investment of your time can have a tremendous impact on a college student’s life, and on the region’s economy.

The first step is to complete an online application by navigating here and clicking "Apply" at the bottom of the page: https://www.collegenowgc.org/become-a-mentor/. Once your application is complete, we’ll follow up with you for next steps to be matched throughout the 2024/5 school year.
