This study investigated the influence of only two factors on students’ willingness to mentor: a personality-related factor (altruism) and a contextual factor (organizational culture). The quantitative analysis shows that organizational culture and altruism significantly impact students’ willingness to mentor their peers. Peer mentoring can help students prepare their transition from high school to university, guide them through university programs, and help them prepare their transition from university to workplace. The study suggests that universities do have a role to play in promoting students’ interest in peer mentoring programs through the development of a culture of support and mutual help.
