Peer Navigators


All Summer Bridge students will be supported by peer navigators who work with them from the start of the 5-week program and in group settings in the academic year. 


Peer Navigators:

  • Are a critical part of your transition to UCSan Diego
  • Serve as a resource for campus information
  • Empower students to explore a variety of academic, social, and personal concerns

Peer Navigators support Summer Bridge students through the following opportunities:

    • Peer Navigators are the FIRST point of contact to aid with onboarding processes (Triton + SBchecklist)
    • Assists in Summer and Fall course registration
    • Meets with students in “one-to-one” sessions during the summer 
    • Facilitates weekly community-building programming for students, also known as Peer-LedSuccess Circles.

      SB Teams PNs

Student reflections:

  • "I cherish the experiences I have with my peer navigators so much! We had very philosophical conversations and got to know each other on a deep level. I really resonated with her personality, and I'm so excited to reconnect with her (and my cohort) during the school year. She's awesome!’

Smart, talented, hard-working, and informative, [my peer navigators] were an excellent resource. I hope she reads this so she can know what a positive impact she had on my own experience."
  • "[My peer navigator] was a great peer navigator, and I had a great time in her cohort. It was fun and helpful, and she did all she could to accommodate us. 12/10"
