Student Success
First Year Mentoring Program
The faculty and student relationships at Milligan are one of the
college’s greatest resources for students. Our faculty are
wholeheartedly committed to the development of our students—both
in and out of class. Each year, we have 17 members of our
faculty and staff who commit to serving as mentors to entering
students. These mentors are available for any questions students
may have—please take advantage of their expertise!
At Milligan, you
will be paired with a faculty or staff mentor, based on your
academic interest. If you haven't decided on a major yet, your
mentor will help guide you through the core curriculum and
career assessments to help you discern God's call.
In addition to
meeting regularly with your mentor on campus, mentors
frequently have students over for dinner, games, movies, Bible
studies, and often worship together. Your mentor will help you
successfully navigate through your first year as a college
student. From there, you will be ready to work closely with an
academic advisor in your major, who will lead you through to
your graduation.
