Meet the Summer Start Student Staff
Each year New Student Programs selects a group of enthusiastic and dedicated undergraduate leaders to assist with implementing the Summer Start program. Summer Start Mentors serve as important resources and guides to assist new students with the transition to NC State. Lead Mentors and Undergraduate Interns are student leaders who have previously served as Summer Start Mentors and assist in the program development and implementation of Summer Start.
Interested in becoming a 2018 Summer Start Mentor? Learn more here and apply by October 11, 2017!
