Feedback:
" MAPS was a huge source of support for me this past year, and I am so happy I had the opportunity to hear such great advice from the MAPS mentors."
​
"...it was extremely beneficial to me during my sophomore year, and I can not thank you enough for the help in providing a mentor to guide me!"
​
" I really liked the combination of hosted events and one-on-one meetings. For me, the one-on-one was the most helpful part of the program, so I would love for that to be even further emphasized in the future (if possible)."
