Welcome to the
MAPP Family!
About
For over 20 years, the Mentoring Assistance Peer Program (MAPP) has been a premier first-year mentoring program that has served thousands of underrepresented first-year students through 1-on-1 support, academic advisement, career development, cultural exploration, and community engagement.
Each first-year mentee is paired an upperclassman who is dedicated to providing continual support and will provide programmatic opportunities. MAPP mentors are selected and trained to support students dealing with many first- year experiences that shape your most formative year in college. This is an opportunity designed to build your skill-set as exceptional student leaders.
MAPP is sponsored by the Office of Multicultural Affairs. Students who are part of MAPP represent a broad cross-section of the underrepresented student population at JHU. Students of color, first-generation college students (if you are the first one in your family to go to college), and low/modest income background students mentor and support one another through first-hand interactions. Each year, the MAPP family is comprised of mentees, mentors, and a core leadership team, making the program 120-140 students!
More than 90% of MAPP affiliates believe racial and ethnic diversity is important to them
