NEW STUDENT PARENTS & FAMILY
We welcome new student parents, guardians, and family to the DePauw community! Resources for the Class of 2027 will be available in spring 2023.
First-Year Mentors
The students that comprise the mentor program have diverse fields of study, backgrounds, interests and are involved in many different leadership activities across campus. One thing they have in common is a commitment to helping each and every first-year student make a successful transition to DePauw. They recognize that this transition can challenging at times, and they want to play a part in connecting the newest members of our community to resources that can be supportive during that transition process.
