Friend at Marshall

FAM 2022-2023

Thank You for Choosing Marshall University!

The minute you get to campus, you already have a Friend-At-Marshall (FAM!) ready to help you face the challenges ahead. We know that the transition to college can feel a little intimidating, and we are here to help. Your F.A.M. will be there for you throughout your freshman and sophomore years. Transfer students — we got you covered as well!

F.A.M. is our Peer Mentoring program that puts you in contact with a caring sophomore, junior or senior who will help you get adjusted to campus, answer any questions you might have, and point you to any resources you might need.

You can contact your FAM by email, text, phone, virtually or in-person.

FAMs Like You

Our FAM Peer Mentors represent a wide range of students, including students who are part of the LGBTQ+ community, students who come from foster care, students who are neurodivergent, and students who are parents of young children. Each of these student populations enriches our Marshall family. If you would like to be matched with a FAM who might be better able to relate to you, please click here to make that request.
