Thank you very much for your interest in the First Generation Peer Mentor Program! Students that are accepted into the FGPMP must agree to meeting virtually with their mentor/mentee at least three times throughout the course of the fall 2020 semester, though meeting more often is welcomed and encouraged. In addition to 1-on-1 meetings, participants will have other obligations, including attending at least two events hosted by First_Gen @ UMBC. Please note that only students who have been at UMBC prior to this semester can serve as a mentor. If you have additional questions, please contact Dr. M. Antonio Silas at
silas@umbc.edu.
