Lobo Friend Mentee Application Fall 2024
The "Lobo Friend" Program is a peer mentor program launched by the Global Education Office at UNM to foster communication and friendship between U.S. and International Students. US students will have the opportunity to share their knowledge of UNM and Albuquerque and to expand their knowledge of other countries and cultures. International students will benefit from connecting with a U.S. student as soon as they arrive, hopefully leading to an easier transition to life at UNM. We hope that by matching international students with American friends, we can ease cultural adjustments for international students and enhance global competency at UNM!

Our Goals: Promote campus internationalization, facilitate an easier transition for incoming students', and enable more interaction between domestic and international students.

Commitment:
- Meet your Lobo Friend at least once a month
- Attend 1 Lobo friend or GEO social activities event
- Maintain regular communication with your Lobo Friend
- (Optional) Write a 1-2 page essay, video vlog, or photo collage recapping the semester

For questions, please contact GEO at geo@unm.edu
 or Fiore Bran Aragon, International Education Advisor Sr., at fsbran@unm.edu
