The Neuroscience Peer Mentoring Program allows first and second-year students to meet in small groups with upper-class neuroscience peer mentors. Peer mentors lead within the neuroscience community by sharing their experiences with students, fostering a welcoming environment for program exploration, and assisting new students as they navigate challenging situations. Students are welcome to attend any session.

Find dates for upcoming sessions and request a calendar invite .

If you have questions, please email neuroscience@slu.edu.

Junior and senior neuroscience majors who would like to become peer mentors will commit to one year of service that includes the following activities:

• Orientation meeting (August/September)
• Neuroscience welcome social (September)
• Two to four small group mentoring sessions (5 p.m. Fall/Spring term)
• DEI training (Spring Term)
• Wellness training/Activity (Fall Term)
• Mid-year reflection meeting and examen activity (January)
• Reflection project and discussion (April/May)

Neuroscience peer mentors can receive credit for Cura Personalis 2 (CORE 2500) Self in Contemplation. Students interested in becoming a peer mentor should complete the form below.

You must be a graduate of an accredited high school or have an acceptable score on the GED. An official high school transcript and official test scores are required only if you have attempted fewer than 24 transferable semester hours of college credit.

If you have completed 24 college credit hours or more, you need only submit a transcript from previously attended colleges. In reviewing your file, the Office of Admission will holistically examine your academic performance in college-level coursework as an indicator of your ability to meet the academic rigors of 性奴调教.

In addition, if you transfer as a sophomore and intend to major in neuroscience, you must have transfer credits for PSY 1010, BIOL 1240/1245, BIOL 1260/1265, CHEM 1110/1115 and CHEM 1120/1125 with a grade of B- or better in each course. If you transfer as a junior, you must also have transfer credits for BIOL 3020 and BIOL 3040 with a 3.0 GPA in these courses.

Studying abroad offers many valuable opportunities, and all students are encouraged to consider this option. However, many courses in the neuroscience sequence have prerequisites that are only offered once a year. Summer abroad programs avoid scheduling conflicts. Students wishing to take a semester abroad should take NEUR 3400: Introduction to Neuroscience 1 in the spring of their sophomore year and travel abroad in their junior year. Spring semester is preferred for the neuroscience sequence; the pre-professional health office may recommend the fall semester. If you travel in the fall of junior year, then you will take NEUR 3500: Introduction to Neuroscience 2 in the fall of senior year.
