Middlebury College Access Mentors Recruitment

Applying to college is stressful, and especially hard without the support of others who have recently been through the process. MiddCAM pairs Middlebury students with juniors and seniors at Middlebury Union and Mt. Abraham High Schools as peer mentors, matched each February on shared interests as well as academics.

Mentors meet in person monthly, message in between, and join drop-in hours at the school over breakfast or pizza. It works more like a friendship than tutoring. Since 2014, 120 local high schoolers have gone on to more than 50 colleges.
