Starting university could be exciting; however, it could generate concerns and make you feel no trust in your skills to deal with some new demands. To meet a student who has overcome the same way could be helpful!

Please, read and answer next questions:

• Do you feel that, as a student with a disability, you need any support or accommodations to fully engage in university life?
• Do you feel that living in a rural area makes it difficult to connect with others or find support when facing challenges as a student?
• As a woman beginning a STEAM degree, do you feel fully supported in your academic journey?
• As a migrant student, do you feel you need additional support to adapt to a new language, culture, or educational environment?

If you answer YES at least in one of the last questions, the OpenEU mentorship program could help you to face your new demands! 

What does it consist of?

OpenEU Mentor is a student from your university who could help in your own first steps. You will be able to share your doubts in a safety relationship. These mentors offer a first help, that allow you to adapt better in your university life.

What do OpenEU Mentors offer you?

• Advice and guidance to help you settle into university life.
• Strategies to strengthen your self-management and study skills.
• Information about the support services and opportunities available at your university.
