Program guidelines are simple and the requirements are minimal. The program pairs first-year students with qualified, experienced alumni like you. Pairs should have at least three contacts during the academic year, but may agree to more. Mentors are required to have membership in any state's bar and two years of experience. Participation is voluntary.
