In general, graduate student mentor respondents self-reported little change in their sense of belonging between the beginning and end of the program (Figure ). Answers to response questions about graduate student mentors' professional development yielded an interesting pattern in responses (Table ). Some respondents suggested that the program had built their confidence in mentoring. Several respondents also used these questions as an opportunity to discuss how they learned about the transfer student experience or how they would like to support transfer students in pursuing research positions in the future. While the graduate student mentors did not provide responses indicating that they thought their future careers may benefit from their participation in the program, they did cite more knowledge of how to help transfer students in their career trajectories after being part of the TSMP.
