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 charges through EVE mail exchanges, online chats, TeamSpeak discussions, or in-game exercises where appropriate.
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 charges through EVE mail exchanges, online chats, TeamSpeak discussions, or in-game exercises where appropriate.
Mentors are assigned to applicants based on:
* Compatible times of play, to make it easier to connect in the game
* Similar areas of interest and experience in the game for the mentee and Mentor, respectively
* Availability of Mentors relative to the number of applicants
Once begun, '''mentorships last for a period of three months''', unless extended by mutual agreement of both the Mentor and their mentee.


This program is administered by the current Mentor Manager, [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Eve_University_Management#Mentor_Manager Neville Smit], and by Assistant Mentor Managers.
