Mentors are volunteers who want to give back to EVE University by helping new players get off to a good start in EVE. They are experienced players who have been selected based on their qualifications and ability. Mentors assist their assigned capsuleers through EVE mail exchanges, Mumble discussions, Discord chats, and/or in-game exercises where appropriate.

The mentor program is restricted to '''EVE University members''' in good standing and you must be a full and participating member of the UNI when you apply for a Mentor. Please note that if you drop from the UNI later during your mentorship, although you may continue to interact with your mentor while you are out of corp (if you mutually decide to do so), the official mentorship will end.

~~{{co|#00ffea|~~However, if you drop from the UNI during your mentorship for wartime purposes (ie. to avoid a war), you may continue your mentorship with your mentor while you are out of corp, and any war-related out-of-corp mentorship will be maintained until the end of the war. If you do not return to the Uni within 7 days, the official mentorship will end.}}

While we would love to give everyone a mentor there are only so many mentors to go around. Formal mentorships are, therefore, '''not usually intended for players already well-experienced with the game (e.g. more than 4 months active playtime)''' or experienced players wishing to specialize in a particular area of the game. ~~{{co|#00ffea|~~However, if you are an older player who is returning to the game, we will accept you on a one-month basis to help you get back up to speed. Any extensions are up to mutual agreement with your mentor and overall availability of mentors to demand.}}
