Our mentors are current USC students who have won national awards such as the Hollings,
Goldwater, Truman, Udall, Mt. Vernon, NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program and
the Critical Language Scholarship (CLS). Mentors can answer your questions and encourage you to apply.
Meet a Mentor
You can find them helping at workshops and presenting at Discover USC in April. Mentors
love to share their experiences and encourage future applicants.
Coffee with a Peer Mentor
What's it really like to apply for a Hollings or Goldwater? How do you show you're
really ready for an immersive language program such as the CLS? Talk to someone who
knows.
Our Coffee with a Peer Mentor Program is designed to make meetings with peer mentors
easier and more natural. Email us at ofsp@sc.edu to request a meet-up, and we’ll connect you. The coffee is our treat!
