This book describes the Motivation Student Mentoring Program in detail and shares the experiences gained during the seven years of its operation. We hope that these experiences will be useful for future disadvantage compensation initiatives. For this purpose, we summarized the realisation of the Program and our observations with a focus on practical matters. In addition, we included our self-reflexive, subjective opinion and observations in text boxes. First, the organisational background of the Motivation Student Mentoring Program is introduced, followed by the manifestation of the Program, and the activities carried out by student mentors. Finally, our views concerning the results and functioning of the Program are shared.
