Student/Alumni Mentoring Program

Submit the Alumni Application Form by September 26 to apply to be an alumni mentor.

Once your application is received, it will be reviewed and we will do our best to pair you with a student who shares a similar major or field of interest. It is possible that you may not have a match for the 2018-2019 year, but we will do our best to match you next year, and will keep your information on file for other MIAD Student/Alumni events. 

As an alumni mentor, you are expected to speak to your student at least once a month during the course of the program. You will receive an email with a suggested topic to discuss with your matched student. These topics serve as a guide to help with professional development.

If you live in the Milwaukee area, we also encourage you to invite your mentee to shadow you at work one day, schedule permitting.
