| Abstract: | In response to the mounting national support provided to mentoring programs and initiatives in higher education, the present
article updates a review article written by Jacobi (Rev Educ Res 61(4):505–532, 1991). The article revisits the mentoring literature in an attempt to re-frame and update the definition and characteristics of
mentoring provided by Jacobi. It also synthesizes and critically analyzes empirical literature specific to mentoring college
students published between 1990 and 2007. Finally, the article presents broad theoretical perspectives of mentoring from the
business, psychology and education literature in preface to a proposed theoretical framework specific to mentoring college
students. The article concludes with specific recommendations to advance the mentoring literature.
