First-year students in CFAES mentoring experience

Steiner, Zachary E

Abstract Details

2022, Master of Science, Ohio State University, Agricultural and Extension Education.
There is a need to understand the relationships that first-year students at The Ohio State University, College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences are involved in, specifically their mentors. College students are undergoing a major change when they transition into higher education at a large university. Often, they are experiencing living on their own and are placed in a new environment for the first time. Mentoring relationships can provide them with a relationship that serves as a resource to help guide them through this transition to establish a firm foundation for their college experience. In this study, the author begins to describe the mentoring experiences of first-year students at The Ohio State University, College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences. Using the College Student Mentoring Scale (Crisp, 2009), the author was able to understand the degree of support first-year students experience based upon for constructs outlined in the literature. Results indicate that students experience varying degrees of support from their mentors, and further research should be conducted to better understand these experiences.
