ACCESS GRADS
A Mentorship Program for Psychology Students at UCSB 

ACCESS GRADS connects undergraduates with graduate students, research opportunities, and the scientific community at the University of California, Santa Barbara.  We assist motivated psychology students from all backgrounds by pairing them with a graduate student mentor in the Psychological & Brain Sciences Department or the Clinical, Counseling and School Psychology Department. Graduate student mentors give undergraduate mentees insights into what it is like to do science day to day,  how to navigate the graduate school application process, and the kinds of careers they can have in psychology. 

“After participating in this program I felt more prepared to apply to graduate school. My mentor was always encouraging and made time to talk about anything I had questions about. All the presentations that were offered to the mentees were extremely helpful, especially if you're a first-generation college student”- ACCESS GRAD Mentee 2021-2022
