USC Pullias Center I AM Mentors Needed 2013-2014

The USC Pullias Center for Higher Education is looking for volunteers to work with high school seniors and help them get into college!

What is I AM?

Many high school seniors who are eligible to go to college do not attend because they are unaware of their college options or lack the support in receiving information related to the college admissions process. To overcome this issue we have created a mentoring program to provide one-on-one support to guide seniors through the college admissions process helping with college applications, personal statements, and financial aid.

Time Commitment: 2-4 hours a month during the 2013-2014 academic year (September-June).

Mentors may meet with students after work hours or on the weekends.

Mentor orientation trainings will be provided on September 10th and 12th. Prior experience working with high schools students is preferred but not necessary.

List of 11 Los Angeles Unified School District Partner High Schools (within 5 miles of USC):

• Belmont • Crenshaw • Dorsey • Downtown Magnets • Foshay Learning Center • Fremont • Manual Arts • New Designs Charter • Marshall • Roosevelt • Roybal

Deadline to submit application for the 2013-2014 year: Friday, August 30th
