WHAT IS MENTORSHIP AT IE UNIVERSITY?
The IEU Mentorship Society is an optional, extracurricular activity specifically designed for first-year students (mentees) at IE University. The society offers a unique opportunity for incoming students to ease their transition into university life or their move abroad. With the experience and support of our dedicated student mentors, the Mentorship Society helps establish meaningful relationships and social connections as students enter the university. By assisting students from the first day of their IE University journey, the Mentorship Society ensures that they can make the most of their first-year experience.
Upon acceptance and payment of the place reservation fee, first-year students are welcome to apply for a place as a mentee in the Mentorship Society, giving them a strong foundation for both academic and personal success during their time at IE University.
