Find mentors today and kickstart your career by registering via www.uclalumnicommunity.org.

Once registered* and logged in you'll have access to hundreds of alumni who have signed up to offer free, informal professional advice:

  1. Head to the 'Directory' and search for mentors using the parameters on the right-hand side under 'Willing to help' or by typing in a keyword such as name, location or company
  2. Click on potential mentors to open their profile and learn more about them
  3. If you want to connect send a message by clicking on 'request mentor'

In July all registered students will receive a link to the mentoring handbook which gives you tips on how to get the most out of these professional relationships and also contains question banks.

*Registering with your UCL email and the name on your student record will usually enable instant access, so we recommend using these details initially and then changing later down the line if you need to. Any questions or issues please contact alumni@ucl.ac.uk
