Academic Mentors


Good morning, Ashby!!!

As we begin a new semester, I wanted to let you know about a resource here on campus if you were unhappy with the way your grades turned out for last semester. The FYI Center in Residence Life offers Academic Mentoring for students at JMU.

Academic Mentors are experienced JMU students who have received training and information about setting academic goals, time management, note taking, exam preparation and other important skills. If you participate in the program, you will be matched with an academic mentor. Throughout the course of the Spring semester, they will conduct several small group and individual meetings to help you plan your strategies for academic success.

If you are interested in getting an academic mentor, just contact the FYI staff at 540-568-4713 and sign up for the program!

Until next time...
Katie, Ashby Hall Director
