Becoming a Peer Mentor

Peer mentoring takes place in the residence halls.  Like tutoring, it focuses on helping others.  Unlike tutoring, peer mentoring emphasizes not content knowledge but rather general study skills.  Peer mentors help students improve their abilities in terms of note-taking, test preparation, and time and stress management.  Peer mentors receive a stipend and a housing allowance.  Please contact the Academic Success Center at 701-483-2999 or dsu.asctutoringcenter@dsu.nodak.edu for more information.
