Mentor Sign-up Form - India
Thank you for your interest in becoming a Mentor at Project EduAccess!

If you would like to volunteer with us for our India Graduate Mentorship Programme 2023-24, please fill this application form. 

Before applying, we ask that you keep the following in mind:
(1) We are looking for mentors who are currently pursuing or have pursued graduate-level programmes at universities abroad (particularly in the US, Europe, Asia-Pacific and the UK). Please apply only if you have such experience. 
(2) We expect mentors to provide stable support to any assigned mentees throughout the upcoming applications cycle. Mentors are expected to commit 5-6 hours per month on an average to the programme. They are also expected to undergo an hour-long in-house training and sensitisation before joining the programme.

Please note that filling this form does not guarantee that you will be onboarded as a mentor. You will be contacted by our team to follow through on the selection process. Please know that we appreciate everyone's willingness to help!

Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis.

Note for Applicants:
(i) Mentorship will take place online or via telephonic conversation.
