USWIM Mentorship Program
Looking to connect, grow, and thrive in mathematics at MIT? Our mentorship program pairs undergraduates with upperclassman/peer mentors to help build community, confidence, and a sense of belonging. No math major required!
The program runs throughout the academic year, with our main cohort kicking off in the fall. Spring sign-ups open based on availability. Have questions or feedback? Reach out to us at uswim-exec[a]mit.edu.
