Our one-to-one mentorship program spans two years, kicking off when students are in Year 12 (England/Wales), Year 13 (Northern Ireland) or S5 (Scotland)* and up until they enter Higher Education.

Each Mentee is paired with a dedicated volunteer Mentor who will meet with them virtually at least once every half term.
​
We believe in making this process as accessible as possible, so the program is completely free for everyone involved. No hidden costs. No catches. Just pure support.

*If you are in a later year of your education, you can only join if you are taking a gap year before applying to medical school. See further information under 'Eligibility Criteria'.

​Our mission is simple: to help students succeed, whether that’s getting into medical school or discovering the right path for their future. Here’s how our Mentorship programme can help:
 

• Personal Mentor: Students are assigned a dedicated Mentor who will be there to support and guide them throughout their studies and medical school application process.

• UCAT (BMAT) Support: Alongside the support provided by our Academia and Events teams, the Mentor can give their Mentee tailored advice and resources to prepare for the aptitude exams required to apply to medical school.

• Personal Statements & Interviews: The Mentor will be able to help the Mentee structure their personal statement and interview answers, as well as review and run mock sessions for them.

• Alternative Pathways: Our Mentors have a variety of backgrounds, many of them being of a Widening Participation background themselves, and they can help their Mentee consider alternative pathways into medical school as well as alternative careers! 

Ultimately, our goal is to create a legacy—helping students from Widening Participation backgrounds become the next generation of medical professionals, or find their way to other fulfilling careers.
