Jump Start Program

Jump Start is a peer mentoring program that aims to foster a network of support for first-year and transfer students at Northwest. Students will be paired with a mentor during their first academic year to provide friendship, guidance, and support as they navigate the college experience.

JumpStart program participants will also engage in a Pre-Advantage week experience designed to foster a sense of community. Through this experience, students will discover opportunities for involvement, gain awareness of university resources, and receive valuable tips for promoting wellness and achieving academic success. During their first academic year, students will be paired with a mentor who will provide friendship, guidance, and support as they navigate the college experience.
