- “My mentor has been really helpful and nice! I’m very glad I signed up for this program.”

- “The program helps me organize my ideas and goals in Physics and gives me paths to follow them. It also really helps bonding with a physics student, someone who has already gone through all the problems that I am having now.”
- “It has allowed me to ask questions to someone I was more comfortable with compared to a professor or adviser.”
- “I know more about how the physics community here and can put my current classroom challenges in context, both of which help me feel more okay with my current experiences here.”
