To aid in our retention efforts SORCE's new mentor program is here to serve the new underrepresented population here are CU, this includes freshmen, sophomore and transfer students. This program is designed to give new students the opportunity to learn about the vast amount of resources that we have here on campus and to get acquainted with students who are very familiar with the campus and are willing to share their experiences.

Upcoming February Tours

One of SORCE's main aims is to ensure that college is accessible for all students. As such, SORCE has brought over 8,000 youth from underrepresented communities to the CU Boulder Campus for tours and college panels in order to ensure that kids understand and believe that college is an attainable goal for them.
