Through the expansion of University of Tennessee’s UT Promise scholarship program, two-thirds of students in the state of Tennessee are eligible for free tuition and mandatory fees at the UT campus of their choice, Knoxville, Martin, Chattanooga, Southern (Pulaski) or Health Science Center (Memphis).
As part of the scholarship, students are matched with a mentor who provides crucial support and guidance, helping them thrive within the University of Tennessee System, but there is a vital need for volunteer mentors.
To support the growing number of students, students need more mentors than ever. The time commitment is minimal all that’s needed is just two to three hours per semester.
UT Promise mentors come from all backgrounds. Anyone who meets the requirements can make a difference. Volunteers should sign up by August 15th to help shape the lives of Tennessee students.
Applications to become a UT Promise Mentor will be taken through Thursday, Aug. 15.
For more information about becoming a UT Promise Mentor, contact UT Promise at utpromise@tennessee.edu, or by visiting tennessee.edu/ut-promise, clicking on “UT Promise Mentors” and clicking on “Become a Mentor” on the drop-down menu.
