About Project Connect:
Exists to empower and involve the student body to promote higher education and facilitate graduation for low income and historically underrepresented communities.
There are three programs that make up Project Connect.

As mentors, role models and activists, students will impact under represented communities. The Internship program offers SFSU students an opportunity to share their experiences and knowledge with other students through mentoring and group activities. It allows students the opportunity to acquire knowledge of the various campus retention and recruitment services available.
