GSC International Graduate Student Mentoring Program
The International Graduate Student Mentorship Program (IGSMP) helps new incoming graduate students transition to graduate student life at MIT. We pair an incoming international student with a current graduate student according to MIT department, language background, country of origin, etc. The incoming student will be in email contact with the MIT mentor during the summer prior to arriving at MIT. During Fall Orientation, the new student will have the opportunity to meet his/her mentor.
