Welcome to your first few weeks as a mentee! Here are a few things you can do to feel at home.

Fill in your profile

Each user has a personal profile on the site. Here you can select a fun image which will identify you when you post in your own or your mentor’s journal, you can also say what you’re studying and fill in some information about your likes and dislikes. Filling in your profile is one of the first things you should do, if you haven’t done so already, as it’s an easy way to introduce yourself and let your mentor know a little bit more about you.

Post your first journal entry

Pop in to your journal and say hello. This is a good opportunity to say how excited you are about being a mentee and explain what your goals are and how you’d like your mentor to help you get there.

Visit the resource library

If you want to find out more about applying to higher education, student life and healthcare career options, go to the library - use the link on the top right of your homepage.
