Abstract
Nursing students gain invaluable experience by participating in global immersion programs. Most programs lack peer-to-peer mentorship, even though greater student involvement can mitigate common issues. This study evaluates the need for peer mentorship through a pilot mentor program, and surveys to former and current global nursing students at Columbia University.
