Become an Elton Icon: Share What You Know With a Student

One conversation can change the direction of a student's life. Volunteer to meet with an Elton student, even just once, on your own terms.

What Being an Icon Looks Like

Icons are professionals who are happy to talk with a student about their work: how they got where they are, what the field is really like, and what to learn next.

There's no minimum commitment. Meeting one student, one time, is a real gift. You choose how students can reach you and how often, and you can always say "not right now."

Once we've reviewed your details, you'll be listed under Icons in our private student community, so students whose goals match your experience can find you.

Elton University is a new nonprofit university on track to gain accreditation. Questions first? Get in touch, or apply to teach if you'd like to work with students regularly.
