First-Year RAMP (FY-RAMP) Pre-Application for 2021-2022 Academic Year
The purpose of this pre-application is to offer the FY-RAMP staff a preview of potential candidates for FY-RAMP employment next year. Pending a review of your pre-application, you will be invited to formally apply in January, 2021 before the opportunity is posted to the general HSU community via the Career Center's Handshake. Completing this Pre-App is not a formal commitment, nor is it a requirement. Its function is to provide you with a "foot in the door" and a way to let the FY-RAMP staff know you might be interested! :)
FY-RAMP Academic Mentors are paid $14.00/hr (as of Jan 1, 2021) and work up to 10 hours per week. Upon successful completion of Spring 2021 Mentor Education (which is paid time - up to 18 hours!), mentors are assigned a caseload of 2021-2022 first-time freshmen who are the first in their family, or one of the first (also known as "first-generation") and/or are participants in one of the HSU learning communities (Please note, this year 2002-2021, it was decided ALL first-time freshmen would be assigned a mentor, given the nature of the virtual experience). Mentors work with their assigned "mentees" to build connections at HSU (academically and socially), as well as offer holistic support during the first-year transition to HSU. Mentors are actively supported and guided by the FY-RAMP Director and FY-RAMP Coordinator, as well as FY-RAMP Academic Lead Mentors who worked as mentors the previous year.
