The Alumni Student Support & Engagement Team (ASSET) is a group of alumni that are here to support students. With a diverse offering of skills, talents and experiences, ASSET volunteers also know the challenges and stresses of being a student.
If you're a student looking for someone who knows the stresses and challenges of being a student, our ASSET volunteers are here to help. Maybe you'd like to talk to someone who gets your program's crazy courseload or has experienced the pile-up of student expenses. Or maybe you'd like to meet someone who can relate to asking themselves, What's next?
There's someone here to listen.
Someone will respond to your inquiry in 2 - 3 business days.
