Got Saxon Spirit?! Apply to be an Admissions Student Ambassador!
To apply:
Complete the attached application and submit it, along with the required additional materials to the Office of Admissions (located in Alumni Hall) or via e-mail to [email protected] or
[email protected] no later than July 1, 2018. Interviews will start when the Fall semester begins.
Admissions ambassadors are student leaders who are knowledgeable and enthusiastic about Alfred University. Ambassadors must possess strong communication, organization and leadership skills. The job entails a great deal of responsibility, since it directly supports the enrollment efforts of the professional admissions staff and the university as a whole. Giving campus tours is the principle responsibility of the tour guides; the tours will introduce prospective students to AU's campus, while providing them with relevant information about academics and student life. Ambassadors will also correspond with prospective students and assist admissions counselors with office responsibilities.
