What’s it like to have a 4S Mentor?
One of the best parts about the 4S Education Foundation Mentorship Program is that you’ll be getting help from students who have gone through college applications just years prior. They understand the process from start to finish and have succeeded in getting into their dream colleges. They're eager to help get you into yours as well!
So, what’s it like to have a 4S Mentor?
Having a 4S Mentor means that you will have someone who is there to help you brainstorm ideas for your college essays, proofread your writing, and bring out more of who you are in your story. They could serve as another pair of eyes helping you correct errors that you may have missed or as an advisor providing inspiration for crafting a compelling personal statement. They schedule as much time as you need or want in shaping your college applications.
What experience and training do 4s Mentors have?
Our mentors have been trained by 4S Founder and CEO, Dr. Phil Chase, who developed the innovative one-on-one mentorship program. 4S Mentors were all once 4S Scholars who underwent the college application process through our program, so they know exactly how to teach their students to help them succeed. 4S Mentors have gone through the process of proofreading many essays and are dedicated to helping make your essays the best.
What other things can 4S Mentors help with?
4S Mentors don’t only help with college essays. If you need guidance with scholarship applications, they are here to help, too. We have mentors who have successfully completed scholarship interviews, such as for the POSSE Foundation, and would be more than willing to share their experience with 4S Scholars.
However, this process is more than simply getting college applications done. It’s about preparing you for your best college experience.
How can 4S Mentors help me with my college career?
Once college admission decisions arrive, 4S mentors can help you through the acceptance process, choosing which college best fits your academic goals, as well as various financial aid options. They can also advise on college majors and college career planning.
What are the other benefits of being part of the 4S Mentorship program?
In the long term, the connections that you make as a 4S Scholar lasts a lifetime. Also, this program is entirely FREE to students and their families, made possible by our amazing donors!
