Buddy systém sa zameriava na pomoc študentom a študentkám pri adaptácii na vysokoškolské prostredie a na zlepšenie ich duševnej pohody v osobnom kontakte, ale aj online. V dnešnej dobe, keď sa mladí ľudia stretávajú s rôznymi výzvami a tlakmi (rovnováha školského, pracovného a osobného života, akademický tlak, technologické a informačné výzvy, sociálne tlaky...), je nevyhnutné poskytnúť im v univerzitnom prostredí efektívnu a ľahko dostupnú pomoc. Buddy systém však nie je len o poskytovaní akademickej pomoci, ale aj o vytváraní vzťahov, podpore a priateľstve.
