Mentornity is student mentoring software for universities, schools, career centers and scholarship programs. It connects students with alumni or senior mentors. It collects applications, matches by field and career goal, guides each session and records the results. The University of Basel is among the programs that use it.
Why campus mentoring loses steam
Sign-ups that never meet
Hundreds sign up, a few dozen meet. Reminders and a clear first session turn sign-ups into real meetings.
Students don’t know what to ask
An open “talk to a mentor” is intimidating. Session topics like CV review, choosing a field or a first internship give every meeting a point.
Alumni drift away
Ask an alum to mentor and you get one meeting. Give them office hours, a cap on mentees and reminders, and they come back next year.
What your office gets
And 50% off for universities, schools and student programs.
Application forms for both sides
Separate forms for alumni and students, with your own questions. Accept automatically or review each one.
Matching by field and goal
Match on faculty, target industry, language or anything you ask. Hard rules keep the must-haves, like a shared language.
A guided semester
A session path from first meeting to mock interview. Date windows keep the whole cohort moving together.
Certificates for LinkedIn
Students who complete the program get a certificate with a public verification page. One click adds it to LinkedIn.
Alumni anywhere
Mentors share availability in their own time zone, students see it in theirs. Calendar clashes are blocked.
Oversight for staff
Everyone accepts your agreement before joining. Staff see activity based on your settings, and support requests come to your team.
Inside the product
Onboarding that ends on a welcome page
New members go through your welcome message, profile and availability, then land on a home page with their match and first tasks.
To-do lists with live progress
Create a list once, pick who gets it, and see item by item who has completed, who is in progress and who has not started.
Certificates by rule, sent in bulk
Set the rules, publish to everyone who qualifies in one click. Members get a 3D certificate with QR verification and add it to LinkedIn.
Posts that reach the right people
Write a post, choose who sees it, moderate comments and send it by e-mail in the same step.
General and matching forms
Ask everyone the same questions, or let each member answer once for every person they are matched with.
