Peer mentors in the Common Experience Program are students who demonstrate a positive attitude, enthusiasm for Fisher College, and a willingness to provide insight into one's own first-year experience to the incoming class.
The student mentors selected for The Common Experience are vital members of the program. Each instructor is assigned a mentor to his/her class section. Mentors assist the instructor by monitoring class attendance, selecting and organizing class activities, facilitating online class discussions, leading in-class ice-breakers, and assist with other duties as needed.

- A GPA of at least 2.0.
- Mentors must be a full-time student who has attended Fisher College for at least two semesters and earned a minimum of 24 credits at Fisher.
- Students must not be currently on judicial sanction.
Note: The selection process for the Fall 2008 semester has been completed. Please check back as to when the next selection of peer mentors will occur.
