Despite decades of outreach and support, there continues to be a disparity in the numbers of underrepresented students graduating from college compared to their typical peers (Snyder, de Brey, & Dillow, 2016). Using a unique mentorship model with the same population, Scholar Excel (pseudonym), a college access organization, has a 95% college graduation rate. This study examined the relationship between Scholar Excel's mentors and mentees and how it affected their college graduation attainment. This qualitative case study used semi-structured interview questions to examine the meaningful experiences of 9 mentees who had all graduated within the past 5 years, providing details regarding how the mentorship relationship shaped their experiences in college. Five significant themes emerged from participants' passionate voices, detailing their educational passage from early hopes to college graduation: aspirations, mentorship, self-doubt/imposter syndrome, emotional challenges, and self-efficacy. These interviews and themes were analyzed within the conceptual frameworks of social construction and social cognitive theory. The interviews documented the transformation in participants' belief in themselves and the development of self-efficacy as an effect of the mentor relationship. The mentors provided a framework of guidance and support as the mentees faced challenges and barriers as underrepresented college students. Future programs, research directions, and policy initiatives are proposed for educational leaders in both K-12 environment and higher education to better support underrepresented students.
