Mature student mentors are here to support your transition and success at York University. Mentors are available to all mature, part-time and transfer students to offer guidance and advice throughout the year.
 

How can mature student mentors help me?

  • understanding and making referrals to York’s student services;
  • navigating the physical spaces at York; and
