The Global Ambassadors Program (GAP) is a virtual summer-long peer mentoring program designed to assist incoming undergraduate international students in acclimating to a new environment and making a smooth transition into university life. GAP Mentors provide friendly support in order to engage our undergraduate non-resident students and help them create solid relationships within the UC San Diego campus. The program will pair 2-3 incoming undergraduate international students with current students in order to encourage cross-cultural exploration and create a positive transition process for incoming students. Being a GAP mentor is an unpaid leadership and volunteer opportunity.

GAP Mentors introduce incoming international students to life at UC San Diego through:

   •  Pre-arrival Communication

   •  Peer Mentoring

   •  Triton Weeks of Welcome festivities
