Summary/Abstract: Undergraduate not-traditional students are by far individuals that require special attention and care. They need as much (if not more) attention in mentoring than do traditional undergraduate students. This study focuses on the needs of these students, on how well the mentoring program that runs at the university level helps students to engage fully and effectively in the teacher certification program. The results of this research indicate that students appreciate the positive academic and personal attention from their mentor. These diverse students want mentors who understand and appreciate the challenges that face as undergraduate students. They already have full lives outside the school which makes the work of mentors even more important to the success of their students.
