what is bridge to campus?

Bridge to Campus is a student-led, federally recognized nonprofit organization that connects high school students to university mentors at McGill University, University of Toronto, and University of Waterloo. We target our outreach to improve the accessibility to FREE online mentorship services for high school students in rural communities, who often face a lack of resources regarding university admissions and a lack of personal connections to university students. 

we are currently working to establish a strong branch of Bridge to Campus at UWaterloo. 

Are you a University of Waterloo student with strong leadership skills, clear communication skills, and a sense of initiative? Apply to become an executive at the UWaterloo branch using the form below.

bridging high school to university

Bridge to Campus is an organization committed to making mentorship accessible to every student applying to university. We believe that by connecting high school students to university mentors, we can equip them with the confidence and knowledge they need to build a seamless transition into university.

Since 2023, Bridge to Campus has reached out to thousands of high schools across Canada, focusing on rural communities with populations under 100,000. By pairing high school "mentees" with university "mentors" who were recently in their same shoes, we can maximize our impact in bringing down the socioeconomic barriers to pursuing higher education.

testimonials from our previous mentees:

Coming from a small town, there aren’t a lot of opportunities to receive mentorship and gain information on university applications. However, my mentor helped me by providing me with insight into university life, narrowing down fields of interest, and answering any questions I had. Moreover, they read over the essays I wrote and gave back amazing feedback.
