Please read this before you start with the application.
College Admissions Mentors for Peers (CAMP) in the Philippines is a student-run group that provides advice for young Filipinos on all aspects related to the college application process. We currently have a moderated Facebook group where students can ask questions and engage in discussion, an official website, and, its integral component, a one-one-one mentoring program where students can receive guidance from a current college student studying abroad.
This is the application for for high school students who are interested in participating in our mentoring program. You will be paired with a current college student who will help and guide you through the application process.
If you wish to participate, please complete this application honestly and to the best of your abilities. Patterned after the Common Application, the universal college application system employed by US colleges, the mentee application is designed to give you a taste of the application process that you will go through later this year. We encourage you to answer everything truthfully and in great detail to help us help you even better!
We are changing our current pairing system so that you can go through our list of mentors and give us your top choices. We reserve the right however to pair you with someone you did not choose for reasons such as but not limited to if we feel that another mentor is better suited for you or if the mentor you've requested currently has too many mentees. Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis with pairings being sent out at the start of every month. Applications must be received one week in advance of the first of a month to receive a pairing that month (e.g. to receive a pairing in April, submit before March 24). All deadlines will be in EST and enforced.
We would like to emphasize that we have a limited number of mentors available. Your application does not guarantee a mentor, so again, the earlier you apply, the better.
CAMP Philippines will keep all your information secure and will only share relevant answers with your soon to be mentor.
Thank you for your interest in CAMP! :)
Sincerely,
CAMP Philippines Executive Team
