My older son is one of the Peer Mentors and he would say it’s worth it for freshmen. He and his other Peer Partner scheduled two evening a week (the frosh then chose one eve which worked for them ) to meet with their group. They’d incorporate a fun activity - like going to eat - with the Peer mentoring. They also do other fun things like bowling, scavenger hunts, etc.

The Peer Mentors are paired up and given about 15 freshmen. The time with their group is spent talking about school concerns and such (and having fun).
