Curious what it’s like to be a mentor for Radboud International Students during the Intro Week? 👇

“Wow, the joy and excitement I felt guiding my group through the introduction week activities were truly infectious💫 My experience as a mentor is a reminder of how fulfilling it can be to step out of your comfort zone and take on new challenges. It was an amazing opportunity to give my intro-kids the valuable Nijmegen-experience and a great start to their studies in the Netherlands✨

What was the best part of being a mentor? The memories I have made with my intro-buddies and their gratitude will last a lifetime. The bond that I formed with everyone of them is a testament to the hard work and dedication everyone put into our group.

I'm still meeting up with intro-kids to study, have a drink, or party our asses of in the city center👯🪩

So, to anyone who is reading, apply to be a mentor today! What are you waiting for? You never know what kind of amazing experiences and memories await you. Take the leap and create lasting connections that will enrich your life for years to come♥️✨”

Curious what it’s like to be a mentor for Radboud International Students during the Intro Week? 👇

“Becoming a mentor for RIS was one of the most fun experiences. Even though I was literally the youngest one of all the intro parents, my lovely intro kids (that were all older than me) and co-mentors made me feel more welcome than ever. For any introverted students, this is the ideal way to meet new people without pressure ;) Will definitely love to do it again next year❤️”
