Project SOAR mentors enroll in HED 350 (fall, 3 units) or HED 397B (spring, 2 units). Both service-learning courses are designed for those committed to providing mentoring for students at middle schools in the Tucson community, in an effort to increase the level of academic achievement for these students. Students study cultural, social and environmental factors that affect academic achievement and pathways to higher education. Current University of Arizona students may enroll in HED 350 or 397B directly though UAccess.

“This is one of the most rewarding classes I have taken

at the University of Arizona.” -SOAR mentor
