The following factors are considered:

  • Mentor/mentee requests and preferences (requests for specific individuals, mentor/menee attributes, specific interests, etc)
  • Demographic information (place of residence, hometown, high school, college, etc)
  • Major/minor in college
  • Interest in specific programs (ex: Imi Ho’ola)
  • Field of interest (interest in research, pediatrics, surgery, etc)
  • Year in school
Pairing finalized
  • Match list sent out to mentors and mentees
IF mentor/mentee is unsatisfied with their match
  • Mentee/mentor is free to report problems with pairing at anytime
  • MSMP Board will send a mid-year survey (December) to determine if any matches need to be changed
  • MSMP Board discusses the case at length
  • MSMP Board will make best effort to find new match for mentor or mentee
