The Thrive Mentorship Program for Students of Color is a yearlong mentorship program that will connect incoming first year and transfer students with upperclass students at Sarah Lawrence College. Through intentional engagement and a focus on community building, student participants and leaders will have a better understanding of Sarah Lawrence College’s Principles for Mutual Respect and core values, connect with faculty, staff, and alumni; and develop skills related to success in both academic and professional spaces.
The THRIVE program is open to all Sarah Lawrence students who feel such a mentorship opportunity would be beneficial during their first year at the College.

- Recognize key campus resources to promote student growth
