The Peer Mentor Program is designed to provide support and guidance to students as they adjust to college life. Vernon College’s Peer Mentors are committed to sharing their experiences to provide motivation and promote self-efficacy. Peer Mentors help students connect to college services and resources, find information on policies and dates, develop time management strategies, and take action regarding academic and career goals.
