- Mentorship – Gain access to UNC Kenan-Flagler faculty, staff and former mentees as resources for professional growth and transition.
- Workforce readiness – Develop essential business skills to prepare for the workforce while learning more about applying to UNC Kenan-Flagler Undergraduate Business Program.
"Getting to know the staff and my fellow mentees led to lasting friendships and amazing new opportunities. I received continuous support and encouragement for my desire to pursue a business degree at Kenan-Flagler."
